Weir Farm interns earn Weir Star Service Awards
Friends of Weir Farm awarded Weir Star Service Awards to two summer interns in a ceremony on August 11, 2023. The Weir Star Service Award recognizes exceptional service excellence to Weir Farm NHP.
Weir Farm’s Youth Internship Program exposes interns to a variety of National Park Service careers and hands-on experience by completing projects and working with park staff, partners and volunteers.
Awards were presented to two interns in recognition of their accomplishments:
Lizzie Poland: Lizzie supported cultural resource preservation as a Curatorial Intern, assisting with historic housekeeping, inventory, and special projects such as creating condition reports for collections objects. Lizzie has also demonstrated skills and knowledge in collections management through a project to provide recommendations for deaccessioning objects, and through collaboration with conservators and national park staff. Her positive attitude is greatly appreciated by all, and her contributions to the Weir Farm team have been invaluable. Thank you Lizzie!
