Staff Migrations
With summer ending we bid farewell to most of our seasonal staff: Yee Kee Lam, Sedina Banks, Carol Heinz, Michelle Petter, Nathan Bomer, and Davin Bowker. We’ll miss you all and hope to see you again soon in the basin.
Canoe Coordinator Michelle Hofmann also heads on to new fall opportunities, hopefully through a job with AmeriCorps. We always manage to convince a few seasonals to stay on; this year Outdoor Experiences Coordinator Mike Klapp will become one of our two winter interns. Joining him from Los Angeles is Anna Henze, who has spent her summers in the Bishop area for the last 15 years and is excited about Mono Lake.
Helping us through August and September—a busy season at the lake when we’re often short staffed—are Arya Degenhardt, Chris Candito, and Hillary Hansen. Arya extended her summer internship by a month to help out. Chris is new to California, having moved out from Vermont this year, and has already spent much time on Mono’s shores. Hillary Hansen, daughter of local brine shrimp plant owners Tim and Diane Hansen, is putting her familiarity with the area to work, helping in the Information Center and Bookstore.
Rounding out the crew is Michelle Mealey, who is spending several months helping us plow through a backlog of bookkeeping work. Welcome all!
