A typical V-O-Cal project is a 2 day trail construction or trail maintenance effort with somewhere between 100 and 500 volunteers all working together on public land of some description. We choose our projects carefully, with beauty and fun at the top of the list of criteria. If the volunteers do not have a good time, it is not a good project!
Bringing that many volunteers together at one time is both a big logistical challenge and an opportunity to make an enormous difference in a very short period of time! Following VOC's lead, V-O-Cal provides the planning and support necessary to make that difference.
In the inaugural year, V-O-Cal conducted two projects and several crew leader trainings. In 2007 we expanded to 6 projects throughout the Bay Area. 2008 was another year of growth as we completed 7 projects and recruited many more crew leaders. Planning for 2009 is underway and we are expecting between 9-12 projects. Join us - as a volunteer, as a donor - and let V-O-Cal help you find your "Outdoor Voice".
