Trailblazers - Fall 2026 

Trailblazers is a program for young people ages 13-18 interested in environmental conservation. They will explore volunteer opportunities, career paths, public speaking, and be in a supportive community of like-minded individuals at The Cibolo Center for Conservation. Students will also have the opportunity to take part in a Citizen Science project. This is a hands-on program, so expect to be outdoors and active!
