I’ve learned many things from being an intern at the New Jersey Jackals such as team bonding, communication between fans, interns, and our supervisors, and lastly what it takes to operate an arena during a minor league baseball game. Team bonding with the Jackals crew is important because everyone has to be on the same page in order for everything to run smoothly.
