Each crew has a limited number of positions available, so apply now if you would like full 40-hour weeks of employment during the entire summer on our beautiful Newberg campus.

Spring semester is almost over, and it is the perfect time to complete Financial Aid Verification and the “To Do” List items for 2021-22, listed in your MyGeorgeFox portal, while you are still on campus!
