CASSP Workshops
CASSP volunteer training workshops have two parts. We present the initial session several times a year as a free, online, classroom meeting on a Saturday from 9:00 to 3:00. For the follow-up session, we take a field trip on a Saturday a few weeks or months later to practice observing and recording conditions at an actual archaeological or historical site .
You must attend the online training before participating in the field trip. The field trip costs a one-time $25 workshop fee payable to Partners for Archaeological Site Stewardship, and you must sign a confidentiality agreement to not reveal sensitive site information such as location.
Due to budget constraints, we do not have any CASSP workshops to announce at this time. Please check back for the latest information. Or use the CASSP Events form to receive an email announcement as soon as we schedule a workshop.
Heritage Hikes
CASSP leads free hikes to heritage sites, where the public can learn about preservation of cultural resources in their area. After a brief introduction at the trailhead, participants walk to cultural and natural resources in a four hour hike. Previous Heritage Hikes went to the M*A*S*H filming location in Malibu Creek State Park and to the rock images at the Corn Spring site between Palm Springs and Blythe.
A Heritage Hike will be held in September in northern California and another one on October 19 in San Diego. We'll provide more details on this page as soon as arrangements are confirmed. Or use the CASSP Events form to receive an email announcement as soon as we schedule each Heritage Hike.
