Description
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources' MinnAqua Program is designed to increase public awareness of aquatic recreation and foster greater knowledge, appreciation, enjoyment, and utilization of Minnesota's lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands. Through the MinnAqua Program, I was the Special Outreach Intern to the Hispanic Communities of Minnesota. I was responsible for maintaining the outreach program and planning, coordinating, and implementing two large-scale special events for the Hispanic Community. I wiU discuss my internship experience, provide a poster display of materials. I developed and play a portion of The Minnesota State Lottery's Environmental Journal television program where my work was featured.
