CASSP is the California Archaeological Site Stewardship Program, where trained volunteers work with professional archaeologists to protect archaeological and historical resources by regularly visiting sites and recording changes.
In order to become a CASSP volunteer, you must attend a two-day, training workshop (see how to join). Pre-registration must be made by e-mail, mail, or phone by the Monday before the workshop. The workshop fee of $25 per person may be paid at the door.
You can receive e-mail announcements about CASSP events by subscribing to the CASSP listserv. To subscribe, sent a blank e-mail message to cassp-events-subscribe@yahoogroups.com.
