Looking to Work Outdoors?

Check out some upcoming outdoor job opportunities in Golden Valley!

If getting outdoors this winter is not your thing, I have a few ideas that may get you out into the fresh air in the coming months.

For years I made extra money dedicating my time to youth programs and the outdoors. From teaching group tennis lessons to leading school-aged kids on outdoor field trips, I had a blast combining some of my passions into one.  If you’ve never done anything like it, I highly recommend it!

In fact, now you have the wonderful opportunity to take on rewarding and active outdoor positions with Golden Valley’s Park and Recreation department.
