Quantico Conservation Volunteer Program

The Conservation Volunteer Program (CVP) formally began operation in 1986. Since its

inception, over 240,000 hours of service have been provided to help manage natural and

cultural resources on base. Active duty and retired military members of many ranks and civilians

of diverse professions are involved in the CVP and represent a strong cross-section of the

community. While many volunteers have joined the CVP because of their interest in hunting and

fishing on Base, the program has a variety of projects for anyone attracted to the camaraderie

that can be found through a shared interest in nature. Volunteers are assigned projects and are

supervised by Natural Resources and Environmental Affairs (NREA) staff members.
