Teens Sought
For YCC Work
The Department
Education is recruiting
youths between the ages of 15
and 19 to work in Youth

this summer, including some
on State Park and State
Forest lands.
YCC projects will last
from four to eight weeks and
will have room for ap
proximately 382 enrollees,
including 218 youths
assigned to six residential
camps and 164 commuting to
projects at 21 non-residential

The purposes of the
program are to: accomplish
needed conservation work on
public lands; provide gainful
employment for youth from
all backgrounds; and
develop an understanding
and appreciation in the
participants of the Nation’s
environment and heritage.
Enrollees will be chosen
from among all completed
applications by using a
computerized random
numbers table.
Application forms are
available from secondary
school guidance counselors.
Work assignments depend
on the needs of the area but
can include clearing stream
banks, building trails,
tending fish hatcheries,
planting trees, constructing
Park facilities and im
proving wildlife habitat.
Residential enrollees
receive full means and
lodging plus about $46 per
week while non-residential
participants will receive
approximately $6O per week.
A program spokesman
said that only those ap
plicants selected for
positions will receive
notification from the State.
The notices will be sent out
by April 1.

the same time, the Goodwill
attendant has the right to
refuse any donations of
unrepairable merchandise
or trash, a problem that has
plagued Goodwill for years.

tax-deductible receipt on the
spot, and an assurance that
the donated merchandise

having attended collection
