This summer, American Memorial Park will once again host the Youth Conservation Corps program and will be accepting applications through April 30, 2020, by close of business. <\/p>\n
The Youth Conservation Corps is a well-balanced work-learn-earn program that develops participants\u2019 understanding and appreciation of the nation\u2019s environment and heritage. YCC participants will engage in a wide variety of conservation and park operations activities that will teach them about our National Park and the National Park Service\u2019s mission to protect special places for all. <\/p>\n
The park may hire up to four youths in the YCC program at the federal minimum wage. The program will run for up to eight weeks, from June 8, 2020, to July 31, 2020, with participants working 40 hours per week, Monday through Friday. Enrollees must be at least 15 years of age by June 8, 2020, and no older than 18 years old on July 31, 2020. To apply, applicants must fill out an application and if not 18 years of age, have a parent\u2019s or guardian\u2019s signature. The randomly selected applicants will be contacted by program coordinator Theo K. Chargualaf. Participation will be dependent on available funding. Please be advised, due to the current situation with COVID-19, the program is not guaranteed to run. <\/p>\n
To request an application, send an email to amme_maintenance@nps.gov. Once completed, applications can be scanned and emailed to the same email address. For questions about the YCC program, contact Chargualaf at (671) 477-7278 Ext. 1005 or email theo_Chargualaf@nps.gov. (NPS)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
