Welcome to Jackson, Wyoming U.S.A


Jackson, WY is located here:

Here is a more detailed map of the area including your work and the airport:

GENERAL INFORMATION:

Jackson is a major gateway for millions of tourists visiting nearby Grand Teton National
Park, Yellowstone National Park, and the National Elk Refuge. Jackson is also in
proximity to several ski resorts. On the southeast edge of town there is a relatively small
but challenging ski-area known as Snow King, Jackson's original ski hill. It has steep
vertical slopes and is night-lit. More famous is the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort,
located12 miles (20 km) northwest of Jackson. It opened in 1966, and has abundant
steep terrain and one of the highest vertical drops in North America, at 4,139 feet (1,262
m). Grand Targhee, is about one hour away, on the west side of the Teton Range in
Alta. It opened in 1969, and can be accessed through Idaho over Teton Pass.

POPULATION: 9,577
WEATHER:

The busiest season in Jackson is the summer, particularly in July and August where
visitors can enjoy temps between 70 and 90 degrees. September is still summery in

temperature (besides cold nights), but is quieter. The fall months, October and
November, are unpredictable. Sometimes it snows in mid-October and sometimes the
snow doesn't arrive until December. Winter runs from December through mid-April. It
snows frequently and temps can range from 0 to 30 degrees. Spring, from mid-April
through May, is by far the quietest season of the year. It's known as the mud season
and many locals leave town during this time.

Albertsons will provide you with shirts, hat, apron and name tag. It may be cool in the
evening so I suggest a sweatshirt to wear over your uniform. The sweatshirt needs to be
solid black also.
Outside the StoreSummer temperatures in Jackson may be colder than you are used to, daytime
temperatures average 37F to 85F and evening temperatures may drop to 31C. You will
need a jacket and perhaps gloves as well.
For your apartmentThe apartments are furnished with beds, couches and some pots, pans and utensils. You
may want to bring an extra blanket. You will need to bring your own toiletries and linens.
There is a $250.00 security deposit required for the apartment. The $250.00 deposit will
be collected when you receive your first paycheck. The $250.00 will be refunded when
you leave provided the apartment is clean, there is no damage and you have fulfilled your
contracted employment dates. If you have a preferred roommate please let me know.
The apartments are only 2 blocks away so they are within walking distance of the store.
The town of Jackson also provides free bus service around town.
Positions- There are several positions available in the store. Each applicant will be interviewed
and Albertsons will place each associate in a position that we feel is best for you and the store.
When placing associates we will consider the current needs of the store, your past employment
history, school studies, English speaking skills and your interests. You have the opportunity to
get an additional job while you are in Jackson if you choose. Please remember that Albertsons
employment is your first priority. Albertsons will not schedule around your second job, we
require your second employer to schedule around your Albertsons schedule. If you fail to fulfill
your contract of employment with Albertsons you will forfeit your $250.00 security deposit.
Albertsons is dedicated to supporting your transition into the culture and the community. I
believe you will find the Jackson area to be one of unmatched scenic beauty. Jackson Hole is a
valley encompassed by mountains and is a popular tourism destination because of its proximity
to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks. It is known for its outdoor activities, wildlife,
museums, galleries, shops and its western character. Summer in Jackson offers many
opportunities to enjoy the outdoors including hiking, camping, photography, scenic and white
water rafting, mountain biking and more.
I look forward to your arrival and sincerely hope this is a memorable and learning experience for
you.
