Improving Access

Inland Empire Center Corpsmembers work together to move decking materials into place at the Riverside-Corona Resource Conservation District’s Sycamore Creek Interpretive Center in Temescal Valley.

With a safe, secure place to learn about and observe wildlife and nature, CCC Inland Empire Corpsmembers are having a significant impact in the greater Riverside County community.

How, you might ask, does a new deck at the Sycamore Creek Preserve Interpretative Center manifest into benefitting the community? It’s simple.

More kids and schools can safely visit the center, explore the information inside, and venture into the nature in their own backyard. 

WATCH

Inland Empire Corpsmembers explain how they’re making a positive impact on the Riverside County community by helping restore a deck.

In short, the project is improving access for all.

With the help of Proposition 68 funding, the Riverside-Corona Resource Conservation District is able to make this neighborhood gem last for years to come, and educate future stewards.
