WKTV Community Media has teamed up with the City of Kentwood to produce a video inviting locals seeking outdoor summer work to join the city’s seasonal team.

“Do you enjoy a little fun and working outdoors? Kentwood has 15 parks, 13 miles of trails and more than 400 acres of grass to keep mowed,” Mayor Stephen Kepley says in the video. “We want you to work in Kentwood, for Kentwood. Join our team, where your work will be appreciated by thousands of residents who enjoy our parks, trails and events. And the best part, you get paid to do it.”

The city is recruiting seasonal maintenance workers to join its Public Works Department to help maintain City parks, buildings and other facilities. The City’s Parks and Recreation Department is also looking to hire seasonal park attendants to help maintain Kentwood parks and trails throughout the summer. For more information and to apply, visit kentwood.us/employment.
