I bring up 9 or ten workers from Treasure Beach to the States each year on a legal American work visa program called H2B. I have to reject 70 or 80 interested locals every year because I can only use 9 or 10. If anyone reading this post happens to know someone in the States that has a seasonal business (hotel, restaurant, ski area, landscape, tourist resort, farm, etc) and they are having a problem finding local workers, I urge you to call me or email me for more info. Paperwork needs to be filed with the Department of Labor about 6 months prior to when you need workers. It costs about $3000 the first year for one worker or 10.

I have been using the program for 15 years (I am a landscape contractor in Massachusetts) and it has been a significant benefit for my company....and for the town. You can call me in Treasure Beach at 876-372-6745 or in Massachusetts after March 8 at 508-877-6779. My email in TB is rbsturgis@aol.com.
