This summer we will again offer two internship opportunities at Crow's Nest Preserve. One is our traditional ten-week program in land management which also includes some responsibilities with our summer day camp. Our environmental education position will also include land management duties when camp is not in session.
Interns will gain experience in the workings of a land trust, become familiar with local flora, and gain experience in land management techniques. These positions will have, among others, the following duties:
Invasive plant control, lawn and trail mowing, maintaining native plant demonstration gardens, restoration of natural areas and hedgerows, and assisting with all aspects of summer camp: planning, training and setup and leading activities with kids.
Applicants for the environmental education internship should excel at and enjoy working with kids; training in first aid, CPR, and lifeguarding is a plus.
Both internships run 37.5 hours per week for up to ten weeks. A valid driver's license and background check is required; no housing is available. Start and end dates are flexible but interns must be available during camp setup and programming: June 25 to August 10. The expected rate of pay is $10/hour.
