FALL ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION INTERNSHIPS AT HAWK MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY
(Kempton, Pennsylvania)


Hawk Mountain Sanctuary Association is a private, non-profit organization
with programs in education, research, and conservation policy that are
national and international in scope. Hawk Mountain, established in 1934,
was the world's first sanctuary for hawks, eagles, and other birds of prey.
Located in the scenic Appalachian Mountains of southeastern Pennsylvania,
Hawk Mountain Sanctuary still has internship openings in Environmental
Education for Fall 1996.

Education interns help guide field trips and present on-site and
off-grounds interpretive programs to school children and the general
public. Emphasis is on program development and presentation. Interns are
trained in the care and use of captive live raptors for education. Each
education intern completes an independent project that may include the
development of new programs or teaching materials for Sanctuary or off-site
use.

FALL SESSION:
Mid-August through mid-December

ELIGIBILITY AND QUALIFICATIONS:
Open to undergraduates and graduate students, college graduates, and people
beginning careers in conservation. Applicants must have at least two years
of college course work and exhibit a willingness and ability to interact
with the public. Interns must be eager to gain and share knowledge and be
able to respond professionally to unanticipated events.

REMUNERATION AND BENEFITS:
Interns receive free housing on Sanctuary grounds and $375 monthly stipend.
Interns may also receive course credit from their respective universities,
as arranged by the intern.

APPLICATION DEADLINE:
Extended to July 29, 1996
