"My experience at Glen Helen was probably one of the most influential experiences of my life. I learned so much from both the program and the awesome kids with whom I interacted." ~Ann S.

"My experiences working at the Glen have really helped me to decide what I want to do with my life, and shape my future. I've grown tremendously, both professionally and personally." ~Jessica R.

"No matter where I find myself in life, I have and will always make time to visit Yellow Springs because of Glen Helen."~Kristin F.

"My experience at the Glen was the most deeply satisfying employ from the beginning...Glen Helen put me on the path that I had always wanted to walk before I knew how it could be done."~Ann Marie L.

"My few short months at Glen Helen changed my life. Friendships made with fellow interns are lasting ones, and the experiences I gained through the tough yet very rewarding program are skills that will last me a lifetime. You better believe I was crying when I left, because just like those kids, I miss the Glen every day."~Kate S.

"The intern program is a great way to gain many different types of experiences. Living with strangers, working with children, handling animals, public speaking, writing, researching, acting, singing, playing, learning, and sharing are all a part of being a naturalist intern. 'I could never do this' turns into 'I did all these things and more, and I did them well.' You leave this experience with a great deal of self-confidence."~Jim W.
