After working in the non-seasonal world for the past 35 years, and under union contracts, I have seen many supervisors intimidate less knowledgeable employees, including myself. While I was covered by a no-lay-off clause, the mistreatment I endure...

Thanks for the info. I am applying, when the time comes, for next summer and I like to hear all the different opinions and tips.

Hi everyone!! I hope you all had a great, at least, good summer. I'm very anxious to hear what you thought about working in the Tetons this year, I will be applying for next summer, so, let's hear it - the good, the bad, and everything in between!...

If you work in the Tetons, used to work in the Tetons, want to work in the Tetons, or know someone who works in the Tetons - Get involved and get to know the rest of us!

I've seen a commercial for a new laundry detergent/dryer sheet, you could check that out. Much easier to pack.

Does the Date November 15, 1975 mean anything to you?

Sorry, I wasn't asking about your time in, but in general. I used to work for the Parks Dept here in RI and camped in the park during the summer, it was fun. I would do it again when I retire (whenever that is).

Hey Cyndi - saw you added me as your friend. My plans are changing as we speak, but think I will work in two parks this summer. Your timing with the PO is good, since it appears they will be laying off a lot of people here soon. I'd give you my email address but I got a questionable email from leaving it for someone else. Keep in touch via this site for now. Good luck!

Cyndi - hello fellow Floridian. How excited you must be; I assume you will be workamping as opposed to just traveling the country. I don't have an RV (yet), but one of my next steps. I have lived and worked in the national parks for sveral years, so I do have some information; some of the employee RV parks are very nice (liike at Lake, Yellowstone); some are not, but the comaraderie is worth any inconvenience. As for dorms, they are not like home; usually a 10 x 10 room, sometimes with sometimes not a bath. And most you share unless you get into management. The whole adventure is well worth it, one you will never regret. The adventure is what you make of it. Have a great time.
