Youth Corps

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:

  1. 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.
  2. At end of the handout, click the link to the permission form.
  3. After the parent completes the Youth Corps Permission form online, you can click through to the application.
  4. Child completes the application and submits it online by Friday, March 22, 2024.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
