Teens: Gain valuable leadership experience, have a blast, and spend the summer outdoors . . . while learning job skills with Parks and Recreation!
Youth, ages 11 to 13, can experience summer as counselors in training with Parks and Recreation to help with youth in their neighborhood parks this summer! If you are interested in getting hands on leadership, communication, and job skills in the Parks and Recreation field, we may have a fun position for you!
Work with Parks and Recreation Staff as a:
Jr. Camp Leader • Jr. Lifeguard • Jr. Conservation Steward
We know teens are busy in the summer. You may choose in advance the number of hours you’d like to join per week, and we’ll do our best to schedule your hours on the days and times that work for you.
Shifts are scheduled Monday - Friday, June 22- Aug 21
Teen Workers are individuals serving of their own accord, gaining valuable job experience, and giving back to their community.
***Please note this is a free recreation leadership program for youth and is NOT a paid position. ***
