The City of Albany Summer Youth Program: Albany PAL Edition
Each summer, The City of Albany LIGHT (Learning, Initiative, and Gaining Headway Together) program partners with local non-profits and government agencies to provide residents of Albany age 14-18 with employment opportunities. The Summer Youth Employment Program has offered positions with the Albany Police Athletic League (among other local agencies) each summer for the past few years. Summer Youth Program employees hired to work at the Albany Police Athletic League participate in a number of leadership and enrichment opportunities through positions in Albany PAL's Summer Camp and Summer Sports Camps.
Youth employees placed in Albany PAL programs are often responsible for assisting camp supervisors, engaging and interacting with camp children, helping to lead sports programs, organizing and participating in field trips, and maintaining a high energy camp environment! Summer Youth Employees assigned to Albany PAL for Summer 2023 will be assigned to one of three locations: Albany PAL Center, American Little League Facility, and Sports Camp @ Albany High for various camp activities. Application open starting February 27,2023.
