Greetings, traveler! Welcome to my externship blog! Here you'll find the chronicle of my last big journey in high school. I'll be interning at the El Cajon Animal Shelter, where I'll be helping out with some of the everyday tasks.
In addition, I will be making a volunteer training video to help new volunteers get accustomed to the workings of the shelter. My mentor for this project is Diane Hutchings, an employee here at the shelter. She'll be giving me input on what to add to or take out of the video. She provided me with a copy of the employee handbook to reference while making the video.
I'm excited to see the host of different critters that reside at the shelter. I'm looking forward to spending time with them, as well as giving them the exercise and enrichment they need. I am a little worried that I might not get the video done in time, though, because I'm doing this internship alongside my political science college class. The final is coming up, so it's time to let those multitasking glands kick in!
I'll be posting my progress and the finished video on this blog, so be sure to check back! There'll be an update every Tuesday and Thursday until the internship is complete. I'll be seeing you later, compadre.
