All Staff Meeting on the Summit
2012-06-13 19:17:24.000 – Rebecca Scholand, Weather Observer/Education Specialist
All Mount Washington Observatory Staff
Today was a special day on the Summit for the Mount Washington Observatory. The one day a year when all summit and valley staff are in one location for our annual staff meeting. That’s right, all 32 of us! 8 junior staff members, 6 senior staff members, 6 summit observers, 4 summer interns, 3 museum attendants, 2 snow-cat operators, 2 volunteer coordinators, and a kitten on the summit of Mount Washington. After all our meetings were complete and a hardy lunch was had we were able to get outside for a staff photo updating the one from last year. With the next year on the horizon I think everyone is ready to tackle all that comes our way.
