- YEA -

The Yosemite Employee Association (YEA) is a non-profit organization open to all employees who work or live in Yosemite and its surrounding areas

The goal of YEA is to build morale and a sense of community by finding ways for us to stand beside one another outside of our work setting. Monies raised by fundraising events are used to support employees of the Yosemite area, their families, and the community. YEA holds four annual events- St. Patrick's Day Celebration, Spring Fling, Oktoberfest, and Winter Social- along with organizing the bi-monthly Sal's Taco nights in El Portal. Come join the fun at any of these events!
