I spent the very humid summer of 2012 as a marketing/PR intern at the Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo, where I coordinated children’s events throughout the summer. I collaborated with another intern to organize the events, designed flyers and other print collateral, and supported event development and execution.

Backstage Pass

My crowning achievement as an unpaid summer intern at a mid-size city zoo, the Backstage Pass event featured color flyers designed to get kids excited about learning how the zoo operates behind the scenes.

Other events

Other fun events included:

• Claws, Paws and Jaws: Enter the world of the predators on land and sea.

• Zoo Olympics: Go for the gold as you discover animals’ amazing athletic abilities.

• Are You Smarter Than a Zoo Keeper?: Compete against the pros to test your animal knowledge.

• Tiger Birthday Party: Learn more about tigers, join a birthday celebration, and find out how you can help save the tigers.
