Appalachian Folklife Center, Pipestem WV

| Description: |
Join us as we build pressure and momentum in stopping strip mining and other exploitative resource extraction in Appalachia. This Summer Action Camp is the place to learn new skills, expand on ones you already have; strengthen ties, meet new friends and get ready for bigger events later in the year.
You can bet the types of workshops offered will range from mountaintop removal 101, non-violent civil disobedience, to campaign and community organizing, science and SMCRA (Surface Mine Control and Reclamation Act), and Appalachian community economics. In addition, there is a training-for-trainers track. Expect direct action to be part of this camp as well, though participation is not required for camp attendance.
