On the second day, these workshop participants visited an historic cabin (background, right) in the Sequoia National Forest.

CASSP training workshops are held throughout California. Each volunteer training workshop focuses upon the archaeological and historical resources at the host agency. But the structure of the workshops is consistent from place to place. You may take the volunteer training at one location, and join an existing team of volunteer site stewards at another location that is closer to home.
