Benefits and Opportunities:

Many events will cater breakfast, lunch, and/or dinner and I have received countless amazing meals from all over the area. Other times decorations are no longer needed after an event and are given to me such as flowers, food, drinks, table decor, etc. I have received a few thank you items for my work with groups such as cards, flowers, tumblers, and candy.

Steve Canon, the General Manager of the Equine Complex, took numerous learning opportunities to teach and explain something new to me. For example, prior to my internship I did not know much about horses and Steve introduced me to the sport of Equestrian and how to manage the facilities.
