The field station is managed by full time co-directors Chuck Yohn and Sharon Yohn. Students are hired regularly to assist with all facets of station programming. Opportunities for employment include environmental education and outreach staff, maintenance assistants, water laboratory technicians, and office help. A wide variety of projects maintains a high level of interest. Student staff may be involved in anything from educational presentations on local venomous snakes to using an underwater video camera to driving a tractor.
