Strengthen your relationship with nature and deepen your self-understanding while gaining experience in the Hospitality industry. Job Description Fall dates: August 5, 2024 - December 6, 2024 Elevate fees: $500 The Elevate Program at YMCA of the Rockies provides young adults (ages 18 - 23 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. The Elevate Gap Program offers a backpacking trip, an out-of-state road trip, and a mulit-day end-of-semester trip (the destination of the trips may be subject to change*). Outside of these trips, you will experience one Elevate day per week that can include hiking, snowshoeing, rock climbing, outdoor education, community service opportunities, and self-development courses. All Elevate participants will have the opportunity to gain free certifications in Wilderness First-Aid, Red Cross CPR, AED, and First Aid. Apply today! Qualifications
