It’s National Volunteer Week! We’d like to thank and recognize all our wonderful volunteers and in particular, in this post, our interns!
The National Marine Life Center welcomed our first interns during the summer of 2006. Since then, students from colleges both near and far have joined us during the summer to help with education, animal care, and other projects. We’ve even had some high school students join us!
Thank you, past, present, and future interns!
