Day 3 – Rocket ExperienceToday was a much better day. We started the morning by raking the bunkers, making sure they were neat and ready for the golfers. After that, we spent time pulling weeds from the native areas, and we finished the day by smoothing out the bunkers once again.

One of the highlights of today was meeting another member of Craig’s team, Shane, along with his family. It was truly a pleasure getting to meet them. One thing I’ve noticed throughout this experience is how welcoming and supportive everyone in this industry is. People genuinely want to help each other succeed, and that’s been very refreshing to see.

Overall, it was another great day, and I’m continuing to learn, grow, and appreciate every opportunity this experience has given me.
