(Chelsea Update would like to thank Bill O’Reilly for the information in this story.)
The Chelsea Senior Center has an opening for Program Counselor for intergenerational activities.
Program Counselor responsibilities are three-fold: intergenerational programming for Camp Gabika campers and seniors; garden tasks related to the Trinh Pifer Intergenerational Garden; and a kid’s activity at the Saturday Farmers Market in Chelsea (though working at the market on Saturdays is not a requirement).
The ideal candidate will see the value in multi-generational interactions; have experience programming kid’s activities; enjoy teaching and learning about gardening and working in a garden; and thrive on making connections in the community. If interested, there is the potential for work to continue in a limited capacity beyond September.
The position would be 20-25 hours a week, ideally mid-May through Labor Day. The pay rate is $16 / hour. Interested applicants must be at least 18 years of age and should submit a resume and cover letter by May 1, 2022 to Jennifer Smith, Chelsea Senior Center, 512 Washington St., Chelsea, MI 48118 or email [email protected].
