About the Position:
The Yakima Training Center (YTC) is located in south central Washington State, adjacent to the community of Selah and 10 miles from Yakima. The Cascade Range protects the area from rain, so the region enjoys over 300 days of sunshine each year. The area is known for a wide variety of agriculture, including apples, cherries, stone fruit, lavender, wine grapes, and hops. Over 100 wineries and breweries are located throughout the Yakima Valley. Outdoor recreation opportunities include world-famous fly fishing on the Yakima River, boating, white water rafting, hunting, hiking, mountain biking, and multiple ski slopes are under an hour away. With its central location, the Yakima Valley hosts many state and regional sporting events for cross-country, baseball, basketball, and volleyball. The city of Selah was ranked #5 for the safest places to live in Washington. The city of Yakima was recently named an All-America City for 2015 by the National Civic League. Educational opportunities include YV Tech, Yakima Valley Community College, Central Washington University, Heritage University, and Pacific Northwest University of Health Sciences. The larger metropolitan areas of Seattle, Portland, and Spokane are close enough for a day trip.
