How do you find local hedge funds to intern at during the fall semester?

I decided that I will be staying back home (SoFlo) during the fall semester and just take my classes online. I am curious if it is possible to intern at a local hedge and take my classes online, which probably won’t be that time consuming. What would be the best approach to do this? How can I find hedge funds in my local area? What would be the best way to be able to even get an internship during the fall semester?

Just as a background, I am a senior and will be interning at an Investment Bank this summer.
