The Tyler Place Extended Family

By Becky Dean
After spending three summers working for the Tylers, I can say hands-down that I have met my lifelong friends amongst my co-workers at the Tyler Place. And I would have to argue that the staff have just as much fun as the guests, from contributing our (talent?) in Karaoke night, challenging the guests (and Chad) in Celebrities, and strutting our stuff at Dance Party. But our fun doesn’t end in September.

Hailing from all corners of the world, (Australia, South Africa, the U.K, Canada and more), the origins of our staff offers more than just cultural diversity. These are great places to visit and vacation! Since last September, many staff have connected for various college homecomings, rung in the New Year in Canada, Bulgaria and Scotland, backpacked through Australia, the U.K, the U.S.A, Eastern and Western Europe and even packed up and moved to experience winter in another culture. There is something special about the staff that the Tyler Place attracts. Reunions are always a good time.

Regardless of whether or not a particular staffer returns, being a part of the Tyler extended family is a lifelong opportunity for good friends, travel and a lot of good times. What’s next on the staff social calendar? Rumor has it an adventure to a balmy, ocean-side vacation spot, before we hit the excitement of preseason, and preparing for another epic summer at Tyler Place in 2011. Hope to see you all there!
