City Teens Available to Shovel Snow — or Dog Walking, Babysitting, Etc.

While there was no shortage of snow during the Blizzard of ’09, there may have been a shortage of snow shovelers.

The Falls Church Recreation Department may have a solution. The Recreation Department maintains a Teen Work List of high school-aged youth who are interested in occasional jobs including snow shoveling, dog walking, yard work and babysitting.

Residents who are looking for teen workers may call 703-248-5077 to request assistance.

Teens who would like to register to be on the list (parental approval required) may call 703-248-5077 for a registration form.

Recreation staff coordinate the teens and the jobs to keep the youths’ contact information private. The rate of pay for the jobs is between the youth and the person looking for assistance.
