United States Department of Labor Fair Labor Standards Act. Registration is
limited to Ontario County youths on a first come, first served basis; although,
youth from surrounding counties may register and participate if space allows.
Youth must be age 14 before April 1, 2024 to register.
All participants must attend
every session and pass the course to earn certification.
The course fee is $40.00 for Ontario County residents and $50.00

many years of experience that have volunteered their time to teach these
youths.
