I was very active in the Parks and Recreation department. I recall a lot of the things we had to do, from the trips for the department to organizing a Little League, those sorts of things.

While I was serving, I worked as an adventure training officer, teaching soldiers how to ski, canoe and climb.

I have had a career in public service.

When I got my job on 'Parks,' it was so dreamy, kind of unfathomable. I didn't think a job that excellent could exist for me.

I was an organizer in the Food, Agricultural and Tobacco Workers Union down in North Carolina.

I certainly did work at an amusement park. In 1985. Wow - I'm in denial about the year. I was in college, and I had no skills.

I worked at a daycare for a couple of years going through high school and college. I did youth sports camps. I ran all the camps through my college.

I make appearance at local park and recreation agencies when the program starts, when they have the qualifying meets at the local levels. Then I try to go to the regional competitions, and of course I'm there in Hershey, Pa., in August for the North American final.

I was a stuntman for over fifteen years.
