See what others have had to say: “This was the best experience of my life. I was able to learn what it was like to work in community relations, marketing, sales, ticket sales, gameday operations, etc. all in one internship. Not having any experience in sports, this was priceless. I cannot remember one day all summer waking up and not looking forward to working. The Lake Monsters’ staff became more than colleagues, they became lifelong friends. Three months later, I still miss working for the Lake Monsters.” ~ Evan Levitt, New City, New York, Drew University “This internship is an awesome experience. You work with great people, in a great environment, and you gain amazing real-world experience in ALL areas of a minor league organization. Everything from sales, to public relations, to front office responsibilities, and the list goes on.” ~ Sean Diminick, Essex, Vermont, James Madison University “I can’t imagine doing my internship with any other team. My summer with the Lake Monsters gave me experience in all areas of the organization. Everyone was welcoming and willing to guide and help us with projects. We were encouraged to take on as much responsibility as we wanted and to get involved in whatever interested us the most. The summer was so much fun and I met people that I hope to stay in touch with forever.” ~Michelle Skinner, Twelve Mile, Indiana, Ball State University [Top] [Jobs]
