  • Will I be able to visit worksites or spend time working on a worksite?
    We strongly encourage Summer Staff to develop relationships with participants and group leaders, and spending time at worksites is a great way to build those relationships. Unfortunately, being a part of a squad and working all day at a worksite isn’t possible for Summer Staff. Once other tasks are complete, Summer Staff are strongly encouraged to visit worksites as time allows. Additionally, the TPS will be visiting worksites frequently to film for the Mission Cam and the APS will have opportunities throughout the week to visit worksites as well.
