Yellowstone National Park is recruiting for the 2010 Youth Conservation Corps program, a residential work program for young men and women between the ages of 15 and 18.

Corps members work together under adult leadership to complete conservation projects, such as rehabilitation of trails, campground restoration and a variety of resource management and maintenance projects.

Yellowstone National Park will offer two four-and-a-half-week YCC sessions this summer: June 12-July 12 and July 16-Aug. 14.

Participants are required to live on location, and room and board will be provided at a minimal cost. Wages are $7.25 per hour.

Application deadline is April 15. For information and application materials, go to http://www.nps.gov/yell/parkmgmt/yccjobs.htm or call the YCC program manager at 307-344-2729.
