Praise from an Idaho nonprofit about BYP volunteers:
“BYP volunteers help with several downtown events, making them even more successful and fun! DBA events build both business and community in our downtown. Events may start early in the morning and go until late in the evening. Regardless of the task, BYP members understand creating a celebration takes work! The DBA is grateful for the time BYP members give and we know we can count on their support in the future.”
“The BYP project was a pleasure to coordinate. The team members were enthusiastic, capable, and hard-working. It was gratifying to hear team members’ keen interest in the SNRA, the trails, the tools and the methods necessary for stewardship projects in wilderness settings… In short, BYP has set the bar for volunteers with the Sawtooth Society. Highly productive, injury free, fun-loving, really interesting members. You have dibs on the camp next June! Truly inspiring.”
