The weekend of the 26th & 27th the Events Management class went to the 2011 NSW Country Rugby Tournament in Lismore, about an hour away from Lennox. We volunteered by selling programs, sweeping out the player changing rooms, and setting up for the Player, employee, and guest dinner. Between doing those duties, we were able to just watch the games. Saturday night we went to the dinner with the 400 rugby players (only being about 15 females in the whole dinner). We have never been starred at so much before in my life. It was an interesting dinner with all of our girls wanting to meet and hang out with so many guys ageing from 18-25. That night the girls all went out to the clubs with the guys. It was an interesting night for them.
On Sunday, we sold the programs again, and also conducted surveys about the event to make the event better in the future. It was hard trying to get people to take a 20 question survey while they are watching the games, especially if their son was playing. Overall, we had a pretty good time watching the games and the girls had a good time meeting rugby players.
It was great coming back to camp though, our home away from home.
