This opportunity is equivalent to a GS-5 Park Ranger position. You will learn how to connect visitors with the park’s historical and natural resources through information services, interpretive programs, outreach, research, and special events.
The Interpretation / visitor services team provides engaging, educational experiences that help visitors build meaningful connections to the park’s historical and natural resources. The team consists of permanent staff, volunteers, and interns who work collaboratively to serve the public and support the park’s mission. Duties will include staffing the visitor center information desk; answering visitor questions about trails, historical resources, and park facilities; sharing information through one-on-one conversations, short interpretive talks, formal and informal programs, outreach events, and community activities; and assisting with special events and annual celebrations. Service members may conduct research using park maps, resource materials, and staff expertise to strengthen their knowledge of park themes and stories. They may also gather information for reports, summarize visitation statistics, and draft or update approved content for social media, the park website, or the NPS app. The team works five 8-hour days, Wednesday through Sunday. By the end of the placement, Service members will have developed skills in public interpretation, visitor communication, educational programming, and basic data and content management while contributing to meaningful visitor experiences. This placement is well suited to Service members who enjoy public interaction, learning about cultural and natural resources, explaining information clearly, and collaborating with staff, volunteers, interns, and community partners
