This summer has been an outstanding and enriching learning experience. I am very grateful to my friends and family for supporting me and Environment for the Americas for offering this opportunity to get involved with the National Park Service. I was able to lead weekly programs. I had bird walks and junior angler programs. I loved meeting visitors and seeing where everyone was from and how hobbies like fishing and birding can bring people together from all over the country and world. My favorite group I worked with was the organization EVICS. Doing outreach programming with them was very rewarding, and I loved meeting new families and building relationships with the families who came to multiple programs throughout the summer.
