The Fairfax County Park Authority is announcing its first ever county-wide
Conservation Internship. We are seeking nine (9) highly motivated college
students to be part of the stewardship team. A “can-do” attitude will help
rescue our 23,600+ acres of parkland from various different invasive plants
such as English ivy and kudzu. The internship will last ten (10) weeks,
this summer from May through August. Fairfax County, Virginia, located near
Washington, D.C. is located in the mid-Atlantic and contains both Piedmont
and Coastal Plain habitats. Park land ranges in size from several thousand
acres to less than 1/2 an acre, which allows an exploration of both the
concepts of urban fragmentation and large-scale protected habitats in
natural resource management. Competitive wage and housing will be provided.
NOTE: Additional information/qualifying materials are available: contact
Meghan Fellows at Meghan.Fellows at fairfaxcounty.gov for more information or
see us online at the Park Authority's Internships website:
www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/internships.htm.
