Lake Wallenpaupack-Lacawac Sanctuary will offer two environmental education internship positions during the 2010 summer season. The positions will provide college students with valuable training, education and life experiences to enhance their professional career and personal life. Work experience will be gained with both children and adults at the scenic and historic 545 acre Lacawac Sanctuary.
The internships offer a broad range of work experiences in a non-profit setting for education, parks and recreation, science, biology, and other related majors of study. Interns will help develop and implement programs for children ages 3-11. They will lead natural history and historic tours and walks; create flyers and press releases; collect fees and introduce speakers, greet visitors to the Sanctuary and update displays. A special project can be designed to help address student’s academic requirements. Eight or ten week internships will be offered.
