Apply for KCFB Foundation Internship
The Knox County Farm Bureau Foundation is offering an internship with the Knox County Farm Bureau for the summer of 2012. The intern will receive a $1,000 scholarship and is encouraged to explore the possibility of using the internship to fulfill academic requirements for his/her major.
This is the 20th year for the program, which continues to be very successful. The internship is open to Knox County residents who will be a sophomore, junior, senior, or full-time graduate student at a college or university during the fall 2012 semester. Preference is given to applicants who have a farm background and/or are studying an agricultural-related field. An applicant’s summer schedule should allow them the flexibility to work half or full days, and attend evening meetings when necessary. The intern’s responsibilities will include: coverage of Farm Bureau activities, media relations, marketing, public relations, program planning and coordination.
The internship will begin in the middle of May and go until the first part of August. The individual will be required to work between 20-25 hours per week, and this includes several night meetings and attendance at activities. However, the schedule will be flexible to suit the intern’s availability.
For more information, please contact the Knox County Farm Bureau office at 309/342-2036; e-mail: knoxcfb@knoxcfb.org. Applications are due Monday, February 13, 2012.
