Youth Conservation Interns Go Kayaking in Paradise!

Our Youth Conservation Interns learned how to kayak and enjoyed kayaking in Paradise! While kayaking, the interns also learned about our restored wetlands and the water quality in the river.

Meet Our New College Intern, James McCann.

James (far right) is a senior at Old Dominion University, majoring in Park, Recreation, and Tourism Studies with a minor in Conservation Leadership.

James has been helping with native species restoration and invasive species management here at Paradise Creek Nature Park. He will be helping us mentor our five youth conservation interns throughout the summer in areas of conservation, landscaping design and installation, and horticulture skill. He will also be teaching the concept of pro-environmental principles with Leave No Trace (LNT).

We Are Welcoming Our Five New Youth Conservation Interns for the Summer

These interns are High School students from Wilson and I.C. Norcom. They are joining us in partnership with the NextGen Regional Internship program. They will learn about landcape conservation, wetland restoration and work on different projects to enhance Paradise Creek Nature Park. Stay tuned for more updates!
