Prim just have fun, that's my best advice, no worries. they have the new Dorms which is really nice but they have the old dorms to. There is a pic of the new dorm room on my profile. I believe there renovating the older dorms so I am not sure what to expect with them this year. Just be on time for your shifts and have a blast when your not at work.; ▶ Reply to This

North Rim-peace, calm, stress releasing, quieter, smaller.

Don't get me wrong the South Rim has it's good points, but it is way over populated. The North Rim is much more relaxing as there is not nearly as many people up there. The North Rim is a 1000 feet higher and not as well know as the South Rim. It does get a fair share of visitors though so there is no worries of having to have your hours cut.; ▶ Reply to This
