We are currently hiring for the Spring Outdoor Education season. This position would begin in March and run through mid June, with the option to stay on for summer. Resident and part time positions available.

Students in 5th-9th grade from Christian schools come to Black Rock for three days of environmental education classes and/or a challenge ropes course experience. As students look at creation, they come to learn more about their Creator. Instructors teach classes, facilitate the ropes course, run games, lead hikes, and share during devotion times. It is a great opportunity to impact the lives of young people by teaching about God as Creator and Lord of all. Instructors also lead OE programs for homes school and public school students.
