Intern Training. 2013.
August 14, 2013
Dear Diary,
Today was the beginning of something great. 10am-5pm Be there or be square? Tour of the New Stadium? I think YES. Thanks for the Jimmy John's and soda pop, guys! What a welcome to Husky Athletics, I think I'm hooked already...
PLOT TWIST
Training? No, this was a test. We were given "Project: Campus Domination" (ask Erin about that if you're really interested in knowing what cruel and unusual punishment is...also see: torture). Let's throw the brand new Husky Street Team together in a closet of a room with no windows and see what they can come up with in three hours.
Not going to lie, this was probably one of the most stressful atmospheres I have worked in. A group of five very capable people thrown into a room with different strength and personalities (that we didn't know how to work with yet because we just met an hour ago!).
However, not only was this great practice for future situations, but it also allowed us to get to know each other FAST because we were going to be spending A LOT of time together. During our presentation, HST was able to come up with some pretty great ideas and plans for the 2013-2014 year. However, there were also some not so great ideas that I won't go further into detail with, ha!
Following the training, we came together once again Aug. 24 for the Mock Game to see how it all worked and what roles we would have helping out during the Opening Game.
Needless to say, this was all very exciting for the Husky Street Team. Being down on the field, and getting to see how it all worked. A very exciting start to a great year!
Love,
Natalie
