The Jacoby Creek Land Trust (JCLT) is forming a youth advisory board to help design a treasure hunt and nature hike at the Kokte Ranch, 2182 Old Arcata Rd.in Bayside.

JCLT hopes to weave ideas and activities of local young people, 16-24 years old, into fun activity. Getting involved in these projects is an excellent opportunity to earn community service and volunteer time, or to build up resumes and college applications. There may be other projects young people can assist with as well.

Ornelas happens to be a newly elected Councilmember in Arcata, but her involvement as a co-founder of the land trust well precedes her career in politics.

For information call Susan Ornelas at (707) 822-0900 or e-mail jclandtrust@yahoo.com.
