Member Duties : Our VISTA member will be an integral member of our organization & our community. Outdoor education is still relatively new for Paran Rec. Developing sustainable & meaningful programming will be the main focus. In order to do this, they will be involved with our board of directors & supervised by our director who previously served as an AmeriCorps VISTA. In addition, they will interact & work in collaboration with other community members who represent partner organizations that support at risk & low income youth/families. The other responsibility will be to continue outreach and education for our #SaveLakeParan conservation campaign aimed to preserve the Paran Creek Watershed from pollution and invasive species. The VISTA will be a pivotal player in ensuring the health of Lake Paran so that our community can continue to enjoy the benefits of our cherished natural resource for generations to come.
