About the event
Fly The COOP is building a home of our own, and we’d love your help.
After two wonderful years nested at Cornell Creative Art Center, we’re flying our coop. We’re so grateful to them for giving us a place to grow. Now we’re building something special at 295 Creek Locks Road in Rosendale: a basecamp designed to last through reduced grant funding. It will keep giving our teens work-based learning, job training, FREE mental health check-ins, and structured support through events and group learning.
Teens and adults are invited to work side by side to get our site ready for indoor winter use. Pick a station and dig in:
Solar installation to power lighting, AC and heat
Gravity-fed sink for wash-up
Leveling our worksite trailer
