This intern will also assist with education programs, interpretive programs, outreach presentations, special events, community events, web & social media, graphics work, and on our military bases to fully understand the past operation that need to be recreated & improved. They will work closely with the Community Volunteer Ambassador to ensure this operations plan is in coordination with their projects.
