This past Friday marked the end of 450 hours of service for the NACC's sixteen summer corpsmembers. A graduation celebration was held in CREC's new, unfinished facility. The highlight of the afternoon was the Chap Suey crew's presentation of a new Husky saw to Afton, their fearless leader. Congrats to each of the members on their successful terms!

The CREC event of the year! After a year of service, our 1700-hour corpsmembers, alongside our July 900-hour corpsmembers, will complete their terms of service! This is an event we look forward to, but feel saddened by at the same time, having to say 'so long' to so many dedicated individuals.

The NACC's summer crews finish their terms on August 10th after three months of hard work, dedication, and pride! Congrats to all of the graduating corpsmembers!

The Blackjack Yellowbellies and Quarter-Pounder with Trees are finishing their 900-hour terms and we'll be celebrating on June 22nd. Congratulations to all the graduating corpmembers--it's been a great six months!
