The Trailblazer Benefit is an annual fundraising event for Conservation Corps Minnesota & Iowa (CCMI) that attracts nearly 150 supporters, partners, and program alumni in person, and many more virtually through our online silent auction. This event celebrates the community that makes service possible — the people and partners who step up to support young leaders, care for the land, and strengthen communities, especially during uncertain times. Event proceeds directly support Corpsmember training and service opportunities — keeping the path open for the next generation of environmental leaders. The online silent auction will go live on Thursday, April 9, and end on Tuesday, April 14 at 9 pm.
