Week #1 1/27/14-2/2/14

    Monday: Today was my first day interning at the Barn. I worked with melody Bohling in the office. My first task was to contact two local vendors and get their price lists and delivery charges. I contacted these vendors through email and created a spreadsheet with all the information I received. I also was given the task to price out rentals for a popcorn machine and cotton candy machine for an upcoming wedding that will be carnival themed. My last task which will be ongoing is to create a list of local organizations in which I can reach out to about renting the space for future use.

Wednesday: To day I was given the task of creating two separate lists of bridal guests for the Bridal expo in April. I was told to separate the names into a list for the first and second seating. I created a spreadsheet with these names, alphabetized them and correctly got all information needed for the event. I began to create name tags for the guests who will be attending the bridal expo. I was given these tasks because on the day of the expo I am in charge of checking guests in and making sure they receive the proper name tags and information packets they will need. I learned that over my internship I will be working on things to get ready for this Bridal expo in April. I am responsible for helping to set up the vendors, information packets and anything else needed to make sure the event occurs according to plan.
