The End

Hello Everyone,

Throughout the past week or so I have finalized all of my projects at the FACVB. Everything from the Facility Guide, AD's List, Sports Calendar of Events, developing contacts, and finally to Interviews, this has been quite the ride! This internship has given me the opportunity to work with individuals who have taught me so much through this experience. Every project I worked on showed me a different side of how to be successful as a Sports Intern at the FACVB. The Facility Guide showed my computer skills in Excel as well developing a detailed informative tool for the FACVB. Creating the AD's list gave me the opportunity to learn about and meet individuals throughout the community. The Sports Calendar was a great way to meet new people in the Sport Industry in Fayetteville as well as provide the FACVB with every upcoming sporting event.

I'd like to thank everyone who was involved with helping me become successful in this journey of mine.

INTERNSHIP COMPLETED!!!!

Ciao,
Nicole

Happy Easter

Hello Everyone,
This past week I finalized the Athletic Directors list as well as continuing to find events for the Sports Calendar. In addition to working with the Fireantz, I've also provided them with my resume for future career opportunities.

My tasks throughout the last week have included time management, prioritizing, and organization. Although it is coming down to the end of the semester and my college career I must stay focused on what my ultimate goal here is, to graduate from college! This internship has given me the opportunity to gain experience in a field where I can not only grow as a person but as an individual in the FACVB organization.

Hello to Everyone,

This week for the FACVB I have been working on a list of Athletic Directors for the Cumberland County Area as well as continuing working on gathering events for the Sports Calendar.

In addition to the FACVB, I have scheduled to shadow the Fireantz Game day operations for the last regular season home game on Saturday March 22, 2008.

Internship Hours: 266 of 300

Hello to all,
It's been a short week, this week was Spring Break so not a whole lot has been going on. I've been organizing my internship notebook as well as gathering events in the Fayetteville area for the FACVB website. I'm also doing a spreadsheet for hours I've completed throughout my internship.

I've completed 252 of 300 hrs....

Leap Year!!!

Hello Everyone! A quick update to those following along, the Facility Guide is finished! I've updated the aspects of the facility guide that are most important, now it's time to move on to bigger and better things! Today I interviewed Melody, the Director of Marketing as well as Tammy, the Office Administrator for a class project. I also started gathering information on Athletic Director's in the Cumberland County area and having that information readily available for the FACVB's website.

I've completed 229 of my 300 hrs. thus far....

Stay tuned..

Friday, Friday, Friday!

Friday couldn't have come at a better time this week! Hello to everyone! Update on the internship, the Calendar of Events is in progress and going well. Dr. Combs, my Sport Management Association Professor informed me of his cycling club, and the events they have, so I am working on adding that to the calendar as well. I am also working on a workshop with fellow classmates on 'Sport Scholarships' and trying to market the workshop through the CVB. This will continue throughout the next few weeks!

If anyone has questions or concerns or would like to get in contact with me, I am adding my Fayetteville Area Convention & Visitors Bureau email.

Thanks!

Nicole

Hello All!

Since my last post, things have been hectic. Everything is going well at the FACVB. I have completed the Facility Guide (with updates here and there when needed) and added weekly updates to the Calendar of Events.

I am currently maintaining a current listing of tournament and local athletics being held at all sporting facilities in the county. Each venue will have an updated calendar with all projected sporting events for the upcoming season. This will be updated as I recieve information provided to me from different sporting venues. This is an ongoing process and will be updated everyday!


So far, I have completed 180 hours, and I have 120 left to complete my internship.

Stay Tuned....=)
