Opportunity Summary:
The Youth Film Camp Five Year Cooperative Agreement is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding opportunity connected to Lewis and Clark National Historical Park (LEWI). The NPS is looking to select one partner organization (a single cooperator) to plan, teach, and help produce an annual Teen Film Camp over five consecutive summers. The camp is designed as a four-day program held each year in late August and is intended for a small cohort of 10 high school-aged students per session. The overall purpose is educational and interpretive: students learn filmmaking skills while creating short films that highlight and communicate the cultural and natural history of the Lower Columbia River region.
The expected creative deliverable each year is a set of three short stories/films, each running roughly four to seven minutes. These pieces are meant to reflect themes tied to the Lower Columbia River area, with an emphasis on both cultural history and natural resources. In practical terms, the selected cooperator would be responsible for guiding students through the storytelling process, production planning, filming, and assembling a finished product that meets these length and content expectations. Because the award is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, it typically implies closer collaboration with the NPS during planning and delivery, with the Park Service likely involved in coordination, oversight, and alignment with park interpretation and resource protection goals.
Funding is projected at $10,000 per year for up to five years, for an estimated total of $50,000, contingent on the availability of federal funds each year. The listed award floor is $10,000 and the ceiling is $50,000, reflecting the full potential amount across the entire five-year period. Only one award is expected to be made under this announcement. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, which means applicants are not required to provide a financial match to be considered.
Eligible applicants are broadly defined and include nonprofit organizations (both those with 501(c)(3) status and those without it), state and local governments, federally recognized tribal governments, schools, and institutions of higher education, as well as related agencies. The opportunity is categorized under Education, with a CFDA listing of 15.946 (Cultural Resources Management), signaling that while it is an educational youth program, it is also connected to the stewardship and interpretation of cultural resources.
Key administrative details from the announcement include the funding opportunity number NPS FY12LEWI 0001 and a posting date of April 18, 2012. The application closing date was May 2, 2012, and the opportunity was later archived on June 1, 2012. For questions or for assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Susan Velie, Contract Specialist, at Olympic National Park Contracting (phone 360-565-3114).
