“Hello, everyone! I am very excited for the opportunity to work with you and get to know this industry better. Even in my brief time here so far, I have learned so much and am eager to continue doing so. I am appreciative that everyone has been so sincere and welcoming, and I am enjoying getting to know our members.”

We are pleased to introduce Emma Brannen, who is joining us at CalOHA as our Membership & Communications Coordinator. Emma has a Bachelor of Science degree in Marketing with a concentration in Advertising Design. We are confident that Emma will be a valuable asset to our team.

Many of you have already met Emma at our 2023 Summit or spoken to her on the phone. She is new to our industry, but is already working hard at making personal connections with our members and becoming familiar with their parks. Be on the lookout for her phone call, and she is looking forward to meeting you!

You can reach Emma directly at emma@caloha.org or by calling our office at (530) 885-1624.

Before you take on those summer employees, make sure you are educated on the rules and regulations concerning underage workers!

With summer coming up, you may be looking to hire some seasonal workers to help you around your park. You may even have friends or relatives calling to let you know that their child is available for the summer to give you a hand! While this is great news for you and your park, make sure you are familiar with California’s child labor laws before you start hiring.

California Outdoor Hospitality Association has partnered with CalChamber to bring you a new edition of our White Papers on child labor laws in California. This document covers the laws and provisions of juveniles in the work force both during the school year and on days that students are not in school, including holidays. We also have a breakdown of both California and Federal laws by age group and categories such as wages, hours of work, and exemptions.  

While it may seem great to take on a younger worker to help you with the ins and outs of your park, be sure that you are aware of the laws and provisions associated with hiring minors. If you are caught not adhering to these requirements, you could face fines, imprisonment, or both.  

Check out the CalOHA document library to learn more about child labor laws & provisions in California!
