Re: Russian Olive and Tamarisk Removal Along the Cache La Poudre River
Dear Tina,
Thank you for submitting a proposal to the Colorado Youth Corps Association (CYCA) for conservation service
corps crews to assist with your stewardship project. Funds for this initiative were awarded to CYCA by Great
Outdoors Colorado, which receives a portion of lottery funds. The goal of the program is to employ youth and
young adults (ages 14-25) throughout the state on critical outdoor recreation and land conservation projects.
We received 71 proposals requesting $2,605,880 for the $1,000,000 in available funds. Unfortunately, we are
unable to fund your proposal.
I am sorry that we could not satisfy all of the requests, but thank you for your interest in conservation service
corps and applying for crews. This funding opportunity will be available once again in 2021 and we strongly
encourage you to apply again.
To view information about projects chosen for funding, go to www.goco.org.
If you have any questions, please contact Scott Segerstrom at (303) 863-0604 or ssegerstrom@cyca.org.
Sincerely,
Scott Segerstrom
Executive Director
