Spirit representatives Caryn and Jessica visited Myrtle Beach, South Carolina this summer in July. They visited 8 of Spirit’s Host Employers and got to meet 14 participants!
Myrtle Beach is a great tourist destination that has plenty to offer for everyone! It is a popular location for the BridgeUSA Work and Travel program and hosts many participants from various counties every summer. It is home to many unique features of the US, offering great opportunities of cultural activities for participants. Not to mention, it is home to a beautiful beach with a stunning view of the ocean!
Caryn and Jessica were able to meet many happy participants in the area who were taking advantage of the close proximity to the ocean, with many of them often visiting after their shifts at work or taking the time to explore the area and going to the theater and parks. Participants have also become integrated in the local community with some attending local churches regularly. Overall, it was an exciting trip and a great chance to visit the area of Myrtle Beach! Myrtle Beach is a beautiful area with so many cultural activities to offer to participants!
