Junior Conservancy
Our mission
Engaging Morgan County’s youth in protecting special places for future generations.
The mission of the Junior Conservancy is to develop and sustain a conservation/preservation ethic in Morgan County’s youth through education, civic engagement, community service, and social events.
The Junior Conservancy offers high school students who reside in Morgan County the opportunity to become actively involved in protecting the County’s special natural, agricultural, and historic resources. Participants fulfill the roles of President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Reporter, and meet September through May on the second Sunday of the month. With guidance form the Madison-Morgan Conservancy staff and JC Committee members, Junior Conservancy Board Members create and execute their own conservation-related programming throughout the school year.

The first Junior Conservancy cohort began in the 2017-18 school year with 14 members. Throughout the years, members have worked on projects, fundraisers, and community service events. The Junior Conservancy has partnered with Hard Labor Creek State Park, the Madison Boys and Girls Club, the Madison Morgan County Cultural Center, the Madison Greenspace Conservation Commission, and more to complete service projects around the community.
Past fundraising projects include calendars, t-shirts, and hand-crafted rain barrels. Members collaborate to excel at any project they set their minds to.
