At this point, I have officially completed my second summer internship. My summer spent interning in the Caribbean parks exposed me to; an entirely different set of natural and cultural recourses, new skills, and different NPS teams. I practiced safely operating a motorboat almost daily, observed traffic stops, eradicated marijuana plants from an illegal cultivation site on federal land, participated in scenario training, attended FEMA meetings, worked on a number of investigations, and so much more.     <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I took a lot out of this summer. I was exposed to many different law enforcement related incidences over the course of my internship. I learned so much from each ranger; from the stories they told me to general knowledge that they wanted to impart upon me. Being in the field and working alongside NPS Rangers really reminded me why I am in the Temple ProRanger Program. I feel Prepared for Academy. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The many classes I have taken for my certificate in National Park Service Management along with my summer internships and weekend training have given me a strong understanding of; the NPS, Law Enforcement, leadership, federal Lands, Federal Government, and my future career. I am more and more motivated to learn and grow my skill sets each and every day. <\/p>\n

What is next? I am back in Philadelphia completing my senior year at Temple University as a Criminal justice major. I am continuing to improve my fitness, attend weekend training, and learn everything I can to help shape me into a proficient ranger and leader.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
