The cool stuff that’s really hot. Many conservation organizations use prescribed fire as a management tool. During this session, young people will learn the basics of fire ecology, safety considerations, and how crews prepare sites ahead of a controlled burn. Participants will assist with appropriate burn unit preparation tasks.
If conditions allow, the Dane County Parks Natural Resources Team will have a small demonstration burn for participants to observe, depending on weather and safety conditions.
Are you a young adult ages 15-21 who enjoys the outdoors? Join the Youth Volunteers for Conservation (YV4C) program to explore Dane County Parks while building real-world conservation skills. Participants will contribute to habitat restoration efforts and gain exposure to career pathways in natural resources across southern Wisconsin.
