50 Youth Summits since 2007
Preserve America Youth Summits provides on-site, interactive learning experiences for students and educators which engage them in the study of historic preservation, conservation, and heritage tourism with the goal of motivating them to become future stewards of historic communities, sites and land, shape policy at the local state and national level, and provide lasting impact on communities for generations to come.
Thank you to our Partners!
The Preserve America Youth Summits are always looking for support and additional partners to help expand opportunities for young people to experience hands on preservation, conservation and education.
From the Summits:
At Volcanoes Day Area at Petroglyph National Monument, we learned from park rangers about the impacts people can have on historic sites and landmarks. Specifically, we learned about the impacts of vandalism in Petroglyph National Monument. The best way we can prevent this kind of damage to our cultural resources is to promote tourism and make others aware of the immense educational value of them. In doing so, people will be motivated to preserve and protect them for future generations!"
