Internships
Details
We will soon be offering internships beginning in February 2021 and continuing through the end of August 2021. In addition to weekly office hours, interns are encouraged to participate in staff meetings and community events, both pre-season and in-season. The season includes a minimum of 32 home games, plus additional events at the stadium. Attendance at these events is recommended. While each internship has a focus area, we are a small organization and everyone wears multiple hats. Flexibility and collaboration are key parts of our program.
