Welcome to the Summer Interns!
The National Marine Life Center put out a call for summer interns in March. After a competitive process we have brought five amazing interns on for the summer. The summer interns will be in charge of all public education programs, being the face of the National Marine Life Center at fairs and festivals and supporting the full time and seasonal staff. We are very excited to have them join us! They will also all be working on a project that will be presented to the staff and public later on this summer. Please help me in welcoming them to the National Marine Life Center!
