The Texas Hotel and Lodging Association has started a new initiative
to encourage youth towards careers in the hospitality industry. The
association hosted a Hotel Summer Camp on June 7-9 in Houston. Thanks
to the generosity of THLA, Somerville High School was able to attend
this camp on a financial assistance grant. The grant paid for the
meals and lodging of the camp.
During the 3 day/ 2 night experience, students had the opportunity to
network with Directors in various departments from the Hilton at The
University of Houston, Professors at The University of Houston,
Directors from The San Luis Resort in Galveston, a representative from
Texas A&M Hospitality Department, and other colleges during a career
and college fair.
Students attended workshops pertaining to communication skills, dinner
and business etiquette skills, customer service, job searching
strategies, and traits of an ideal staff member. Students earned a
certificate of completion from the Texas Friendly Hospitality
Ambassadors workshop in conjunction with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension.
Students toured The University of Houston as well as The San Luis
Resort in Galveston. During the tour of San Luis Resort, students
toured all aspects of the resort including the kitchen, laundry
services, security, payroll, and the human resources department.
Students also had the opportunity to enjoy the amenities at The
University of Houston including swimming in an olympic size pool and
bowling on campus.
All of the students said this experience was more than they expected
and are looking forward to the possibility of attending the camp next
year. Several of the students who didn't think college would be an
option for them, have said they are excited about their future and the
possibility of going to college/trade schools to continue their
education.
