WOODBRIDGE, Va. -- The Potomac Nationals, the Carolina League affiliate for the Washington Nationals, will be hosting their annual job fair Wednesday, March 4 and Thursday, March 5 from 5-8 p.m. at Pfitzner Stadium. The Nationals will look to hire gameday employees for the upcoming 2009 season, which lasts from April to September.

"If you're a young worker looking for a place to gain valuable employment experience, working with the Nationals is a fantastic place to do so," said Carter Buschman, Director of Stadium Operations. "We're looking for fun, enthusiastic and energetic candidates to make the 2009 season as successful as 2008. These jobs are perfect for students, retired persons or anyone who would like to work a part-time job in a fun, family-friendly atmosphere."

The Nationals will be looking to fill between 50 and 75 part-time paid positions. Available jobs include Concessions Clerks, Ticket Takers, Souvenir Sales, Grounds Crew, Ushers, Cooks, Cashiers and Parking Lot Attendees. In order to apply for a position within the organization, applicants must be at least 14 years of age or older. The Nationals also encourage non-profit organizations to apply in order to help their groups raise money.
