The Susan G. Komen 3-Day® Youth Corps is a select group of young people (10–16 years old) who participate as crew members on the event. Youth Corps members will attend the entire Komen 3-Day event, including training sessions on the Thursday before the event (accompanied by a small group of Crew Captains), sleep overnight with us for two nights and complete a multitude of important tasks both on the route and in camp. Each Youth Corps member will be required to raise $500 by the time of the event to participate. Read the Youth Corps Informational Handout and FAQ for more information.
There are a limited number of spots on the Youth Corps, and we always have more interested candidates than we can accommodate, so we have an application process. Here are the steps:
- Parent and child review the Youth Corps Informational Handout together. Please make sure your child understands what their responsibilities will be prior to and on event.
- At end of the handout, click the link to the permission form.
- After the parent completes the Youth Corps Permission form online, you can click through to the application.
- Child completes the application and submits it online by Friday, March 22, 2024.
- Once the application has been received, the Youth Corps Captain will contact you to schedule a 15-minute phone interview. Interviews will be conducted between April 1-11, 2024.
- Youth Corps team selections will be completed by Friday, April 12, 2024, and all candidates who were interviewed will be contacted by the Youth Corps Captain. The 3-Day® staff makes the final decision for all team selections.
