Pay Jim to stay there permanently!
Keep Jim full-time, and pay him good.
He really helps make the trip great and enjoyable.
Need more signs stating quiet times and dogs on leashes throughout park, not just at the entrance or camp host areas, some people really don't get it unless right in front of them.

Keep Jim on staff, at all times.
Put him on the salary, he's worth it.
