  • I've been working for the Eden Prairie Community Center for about a year and a half now and I couldn't have found a better place to work. As a student, managing time is not always easy; however, scheduling is based specifically off of your schedule and is very flexible. Also staff members generally care about each other and work together as a team. I always feel supported and I get to work with people who are responsible and fun. I enjoy coming to work knowing I have friends working with me.

  • I worked for Eden Prairie Parks and Rec as a camp counselor during high school and college, and I truly believe that camp set me up for success... I learned how to work with and lead a diverse group of people and how to be creative and flexible in sometimes challenging circumstances. I also learned what it means to show up with your A-game day after day. Working at camp was immensely rewarding and prepared me to excel in the working world.
