A number of all-volunteer committees are under the oversight of the Sycamore
Trails Council. They conduct activities throughout our nine-county area.
- Abandoned Mine Lands
- This committee works with private landowners to remediate small
problems on land mined before 1977, with no mining company currently
responsible for reclaiming the site.
- Education
-
This committee sponsors projects to educate youth and adults,
mainly on natural resource topics. One of the important courses they
sponsor is the Indiana Mater Naturalist course.
- Forestry
-
This committee covers all aspects of forestry, from tree planting
to forest management
- Invasive Plants
- This committee is working on awareness, education, and
control/eradication of invasive plant species that are threatening
ecosystems.
- Land Trust - Ouabache
Land Conservancy
- This committee is working to educate the public on land protection,
especially through the use of conservation easements. The Council has
accepted conservation easements and also helps manage protected areas held
by other organizations
