Happy Friday!

Hola! It's that time again, BLOG TIME! =)


Since my last post, i've continued updating the Facility Guide. It takes a numerous amount of time to go through and fill in every single blank in a spreadsheet and that is exactly what i've been doing. In the past two weeks i've accumulated almost 25 hours. I've updated the Facility Guide, i've started to gather information on a Calendar of Events I will be developing, emailing Athletic Director's in the Cumberland County Schools for information, as well as keeping my Internship Notebook up to date. Lastly, I will be attending registration for a wrestling event at the Expo Center tonight. Needless to say, i've been staying tremendously busy!

The past week and a half has been all about time management. If I wasn't organized and completely obssessive complusive I would have not survived!! Luckily, time management has been something I've been working on for quite some time now, so I am sliding right on through.

Hopefully, next week will be just as exiciting!

Ciao,
Nicole McLaughlin

Happy New Year

As you all know, I was an intern at the FACVB the entire Fall 07' semester. A new semester has sprung upon us and i'm proud to say the FACVB will be seeing alot more of me! It is January 08' and nothing is more important than my internship at the Fayetteville Area Convention & Visitor's Bureau this spring. I have many, many hours left in my internship and I will be updating everyone each week to exploit my progress.

I've started a new course, and I will be in the office this semester working on tasks throughout the next few months. Last semester, I completed a Facilities Guide which entitled every facilitiy in the Fayetteville area that was used for sporting events, conventions, and any type of sporting activity. I recorded new and updated renovations to facilities, as well as added new facilities. I am now in the process of filling every, if any blanks in the guide and updating it as much as possible. I am also taking everything in like a sponge to learn the fundamentals of working in a professional environment.

I look forward to working at the FACVB and I will continue to update those interested.


Thanks!
