Since day one at my internship I have been given numerous tasks and assignments. On Thursday March 22, we had the 10th annual Heroes Breakfast held at the Manor Restaurant in West Boylston. For this event I had duties such as contacting people to nominate heroes from local newspaper clippings from 2011. After our heroes had been chosen I had to create certificates and thank you letters to all of those who had participated and then contact those who had been chosen and take down their information so we could start filming their stories. I then worked hand in hand with Darice in creating our invitation, awards, program and went on numerous outings to visit our heroes and the victims of some of the stories to capture their story on film with our videographer Ryan Hughes. About two weeks before the event we had a meeting with the event coordinator from the Manor and this was a new experience because I saw everything that you need to address and discuss before your event can actually happen. When I finally saw it all come together after working a 10 hour shift the day before for setup I was so happy to see all of our hard work pay off. During the event and after it I had the greatest feeling in the world, the event was a success and everyone enjoyed themselves. I received many congratulations and thank yous and I was so happy to have had a role in all of the behind the scenes work.

Along with this event I have also been given tasks to create certificates for an Amateur Radio event that took place at the chapter on March 9-10. There is also the annual golf tournament coming up in July and in my previous "what I have been up to.." blog there are examples of my work from the task I was asked to complete. In the next four weeks I will begin working on sponsorship brochures for the golf tournament and will continue to create any promotional items that will be needed. I have also agreed to assist Darice up until the golf tournament and will be working it the day of as well. I love to see the end result because there is so much work that leads up to these events that when you witness everything coming together it is one of the greatest feelings in the world.
