Dates: 5/25/15, 5/26/15
Activities: General Park Maintenance, Cleaning, and Upkeep
(All Hands On Deck!)
Reflection: I didn't believe my co-workers when they told me but holidays are the hardest day of work. During Memorial Day weekend I had never seen so many people on a single beach before. I was told to get to work a little early that day to reduce my time in line, and it was ridiculous. Cars were lined up a long way down Hwy 64. My internship has met my expectation and soared way beyond in good and bad ways. I love working outdoors, and this has affirmed by desire to become a State Park Ranger. I was not prepared for the amount of cleaning up after others I would have to do, and the heat of working in jeans in the summer. Some days are easy than others, but in general I feel I do have control over my job and my duties. After working on Memorial Day and seeing what was in store, I expect the same or worse of July 4th. I'm definitely going to plan better for then.
