A. If you are heading up the I-15 N you have to spend a couple days at Navajo Lake. It is just outside Cedar City. Take the senic route via Zion.

Crystal clear water and millions of wild flowers all spring & summer. Next to Zion it is my new favorite Vegas get-a-way.

A. "Suck at sports" sounds like "I am not terribly good at traditional team sports and don't have much experience in that area." That's not a problem. You are not going to be a tennis, or basketball, or football coach. You need to know a little bit about all outdoor activities and be able to convey enthusiasm and a certain level of competency. But most of the recreation majors I had as students were not team "jocks". They were people who enjoyed the outdoors and got turned on by sharing their knowledge and experiences with their students. You will not know everything about every sport. No one really does. But you will learn how to help kids (or adults) find enjoyment in recreation. Sometimes they will teach you. Let them have the… [cont.]
