Internships available for summer 2013

This year we will be sharing summer interns with Rich Henderson and The Prairie Enthusiasts. Recruiting is now underway and detailed information can be obtained from this web site.

Briefly, this is a 12 week full-time program, 5 days a week, 8 hours a day, from May 27 through August 16, 2013. The hourly rate is $10.25.

Interns will be working at a number of high-quality prairie and oak savanna sites in western Dane County and eastern Iowa County, including Mounds View Grassland, Black Earth Rettenmund Prairie and Pleasant Valley Conservancy. The last two sites are State Natural Areas.

Work is outdoors and involves a number of activities in restoration ecology. Applicants should have a demonstrated interest in environmental conservation.

The closing date for applications is February 22, 2013.
