Volunteer Frederick Kids Care Club worked with 41 Guys and Girls Only youth and 20 youth from the School for the Deaf on a project titled Earth Day Every Day during May 7th-May 10th. This project involved youth learning about the importance and benefit of trees locally and globally. The Guys and Girls Only also learned about stream bank stabilization and habitat restoration.
The service project involved the youth planting 425 trees near a farmland stream (Chesapeake Bay Tributary) that had been devastated and abandoned. The youth planted, watered, and installed 425 protective tree covers in just 4 days! Jennae DuBois, Youth Service Director
