The environment and the people in that community are nice and feel very comfortable working with them.
What I wish was different
I thought I will work inside the community center, but with construction, we need to work our activity camp program outside at the park. It was hot in the summer, and hard to keep track of the children outside.
Advice
I think you will need to have a very good communication and leadership skill in this position (b/c we had to work with parents, phone calls, and people who first come to our park) and sometime you need to keep track of the environment to check for the security around the children. But is a good experience is you want to work towards or major in human service.

What I liked
The team I worked with at Ballard Pool was friendly, supportive, and firmly dedicated to ensuring patrons' safety. I loved coaching summer swim league, where I could see the difference the team made in our swimmer's confidence, strength, and sportsmanship skills.
