Forest Conservation Days (FCD) began in 1992. This will be the second time that the annual event has been cancelled since it’s inception. FCD was cancelled in 2015 due to a wildfire that closed the YMCA Camp at Sequoia Lake where the event is held, as the YMCA Camp was converted to a fire camp (additional concerns surrounding air quality led to the decision to cancel the 2015 event).
Typically, FCD has hosted between 900 to 1000 sixth grade students per year to provide them with an outdoor experience and to learn about natural resources.
