Gosh we're funny. Weekly Skit Show went down, and I'm pretty sure there were a couple of people who almost pee'd themselves.
Bigger than Mt. Rushmore. Crazy Horse is a huge monument in South Dakota. It was crazy to see this thing being built.

The End
The last day of camp. So sad.
The entrance to Camp Sunshine. What an amazing summer.
When you realize it is official, you're a Parks and Recreation representative.

Post-Graduation
After graduation I would like to continue to work for a Parks and Recreation Department, leading into getting a Masters Degree in Therapuetic Recreation. I would also like to continue to travel. I think from my experiences traveling in the United State I have gained knowledge and personal skills that will help my professional gorwth.
During the summer of 2015 I was able to work with the Town of Matthews Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resource Department. This job expereince was also my internship in which I learned the insides and out of a municiple park agency. I was able to help organize events, implement employee schedules, create legal documents, and make flyers for uocming events. I also played a large role in a summer camp that allowed me to learn new aspects of programming and budgeting for a camp.
Now I am working with Blowing Rock Parks and Recreation Department. I hope to continue to work wth them upon graduation. I am currently a Park Attendant and Kinder-Soccer coach and love working with the Town of Blowing Rock.
