Land Between the Lakes, Golden Pond, Ky.

Alma students assist employees of Land Between The Lakes National Recreation Area as they prepare for their 2006 season and its 2 million visitors. With nine campgrounds, sixteen lake access areas, six large visitor facilities and over two hundred miles of trails, Forest Service staff time is precious and the park's volunteer program allows them to accomplish much more work. Students perform trail maintenance, litter clean-up and many other activities.
