Creating Community Through People, Parks & Programs

Intern Hall of Fame

Each summer, Colchester Parks & Recreation takes on an intern who is seeking to enter the field of Parks & Recreation.  This is a win-win partnership where the interns gain valuable hands-on experience in a municipal setting and our department gets much needed help during one of our busiest times of the year.

Below, you can see the interns we've had throughout the years, as well as where their life has taken them since.  We consider them part of our extended family, and we like to think that we had some small role in their future successes!
