Park Guide

I just found out I landed the best possible job for the summer. I am going to be a Park Guide for the National Park Service for the summer. Part of my job is to work in the Lewis and Clark Visitors Center...and the other half is giving presentations to campers on weekend evenings. I am really excited for such a good experience to put my two majors (history and secondary education) into practice and also to be making quite a lot of money!

For this job, I have to wear the park ranger uniform...hat and all! I start on May 19th, and I really can't wait! I was a little nervous at first that this job would interfer with a lot of my summer plans. I am invited to like seven weddings, but I plan on making it to three of them. My brother is getting married, my good friend from college, and my cousin are all getting married.

This job is something that will look really good on the resume. I hope to build a good relationship with the National Park Service and maybe continue on working for them in the summer. Since I am going to be a teacher, I will be looking for a job in the summer not only to keep busy but also to make some extra money since the teacher's salary isn't exactly great!
