As another summer is coming to an end, we want to give a HUGE shout out to our seasonal employees! Over the course of the summer they have helped us with grounds and facility maintenance, mowing and trimming grass, painting, trash pickup, and SO much more! Their friendships, laughter, and hard work have made our jobs more enjoyable. We may be bias but, we think we had some of the best, most ambitious seasonal employees out there. Without their help, our summer would have been a lot less sunny!
Shelby is wrapping up her fourth and final summer with us here in the Parks and Rec Department. She is heading to her senior year at Northern Michigan University where she is majoring in general mathematics and minoring in computer science. After school, she plans to become a college math professor. During work she enjoys the people she works with, mowing and being outdoors and in her free time she enjoys playing tennis, hiking, fishing, and traveling. Shelby’s hard work and willingness to learn has made her an amazing asset to our team over the years. We wish her the best of luck but, we sure are going to miss her!
Marcus is finishing his second summer in Parks and Rec. He is considering careers in welding, landscaping and comedy. He enjoys many aspects of the job including driving the Tool Cat for Jason but, his favorite part of his job is bugging our full time staff, Jake and Shawn. When he’s not working, he enjoys browsing Facebook Marketplace. Marcus has brought fun to the department with sarcasm, jokes and his facial expressions all summer. His desire to learn new skills that he can carry into whatever is next for him has made him a pleasure to work with!
This was Jason’s first year with our Parks and Rec Department. He is heading to his sophomore year at UW Oshkosh where he is studying accounting and finance. After he graduates, he hopes to become an accountant. In his free time, he enjoys playing baseball, hunting, fishing, and showcasing his talents in amateur basket weaving. While working with us he has enjoyed his coworkers, mowing and being outside. Jason’s hard work and ability to fit into whatever job that we need has been a big help this summer. We couldn’t be happier that he decided to stick with us this year!
Ben is also wrapping up his first year with the Parks and Rec Department. He just graduated from UW La Crosse and hopes to find a career in Business Management. Throughout the summer he has enjoyed mowing grass, working outdoors, and the laid back crew and atmosphere. When he’s not at work, he enjoys fishing, golf and baseball. Ben’s willingness to help and learn new things has helped to make this another successful summer for our department. We are so glad he joined our team this year!
Help us as we say THANK YOU and goodbye to our seasonal employees!
