Thank you for the summer employment opportunity! Not only did it allow me to earn money during the summer but it was a great learning experience for me as well. Because I want to go to college to be a veterinarian working at Boyd Hill Nature Park this summer allowed me some time outdoors and with many different wildlife animals.
