Answer 1

Try getting a job at a museum or amusement park.

I work at a museum, and we hire staff for summer part-time work every year. Mostly, it's for admissions and gift shop sales, but you never know, a local museum by you might need help with their horticulture department too.

Same with amusement parks. They are usually only open during the spring/summer/fall seasons and are always in need of staffing for various jobs from admissions sales, to horticulture.

Or you can try a local golf club, garden center, nursery, farmer's markets.

As for a job that will allow you specific time off, you'd have to tell that to your employer during the interview. That way, they'll know ahead of time what you want off. Be for warned though, it may cause some employers to not want to hire you because of that.

Also, check your local newspaper for the job career section. Those always have listings for seasonal jobs.

Answer 2

I'd try a position at a park or reservation nearby since you like the outdoors, and that kind of job might have some nice time off. Good luck!

Answer 3

You could be a tour guide for a park service/nature conservation, you could work at a zoo, a golf course, landscaping, painting houses, you could clean pools, work at an animal shelter walking dogs, a day camp, ect. My personal favorite? Summer camp.

So examine in to that eating place stuff.

Answer 5

Answer 6
