Estes Park, Colorado, United States YMCA of the Rockies Full time
The GAP Program:

The Elevate Program at YMCA of the Rockies provides young adults (ages years old) with a variety of experiences. Participants strengthen their relationship with nature and deepen their self-understanding while gaining valuable experience in the Hospitality industry in either Food Service or Housekeeping. This is accomplished through adventures in the outdoors, meaningful community service, and a curriculum centered on introspection. All of this takes place on the edge of Rocky Mountain National Park. Join our community at YMCA of the Rockies for an experience in a diverse, equitable, inclusive, and supportive work environment where lifelong friendships are made and lives are changed.

Program dates: August 5 - December 6, 2024
*Opportunity to extend to April 2025 in another department.
