For a seasonal student, no two days are the same: the energy of the arcade and the friendly atmosphere of the grill make for a fast-paced, social workplace where you interact with both customers and coworkers.

At the end of the season, students are taken to Brookgreen Gardens and a nice restaurant, plus souvenirs to take home.
