Planning

Planning for Summer 2019 was done in mid-December 2018. I had my heart set to go to North Cascades and interviewed with them in mid-September. I thought the interview went great and was told they would be making volunteer decision by mid-October. I emailed and called repeatedly but never got a response so I assumed they had offered positions to other people and sadly started searching for another place for the summer.

I applied to Yellowstone General Stores through Delaware North and was offered a retail supervisor position at the Fishing Bridge Store, one of their three busiest stores. I will be there early April through early October, working 40 hours a week and getting paid! Worried about handling the 40 hours, but excited by the income. I love Yellowstone and there should still be snow in early April. Might be challenging getting the trailer there.
