Another volunteer opportunity – RCGA – Women’s Golf Open

From Mike Grobe – a graduate from about seven eight years ago. Mike formerly worked in PR for Intrawest (skiing) at Collingwood before entering communications in professional golf.

 Dana,

I have an opportunity for potentially 1 or more volunteers to help the RCGA during the CN Canadian Women’s Open at the Media Centre throughout the week of August 7 – 11, 2006.   It’s held at the London Hunt and Golf Club this year so close by for some of your students.

This would be a pretty basic position.  Lots of photocopying and simple tasks that would keep the person busy – and it would be long hours over the entire event week.  However – having said all this it is a great opportunity for a person to get inside the guts of a professional sport media centre, have access to see how it works behind the scenes, will see in action several media conferences, work with a lot of local media as well as national and international media that attend the event.  We have 3 professional staff onsite the week and each of us is approachable to help answer questions that they may have.  

We really need someone who can jump in to the fold and just volunteer some time to observe how things go and do a lot of odd jobs around the centre – ideally someone who is not afraid of some hard work and is keen to understand/learn the industry. Again – it will be pretty mindless work but very very important to us and making a professional media centre.

If you know of someone or can help out ASAP – let me know!  

Thanks,

Mike

from Dana- Volunteer position – St. Thomas Stars Junior B Hockey

Otte received this on Friday. Email Nancy Laurence if you are interested. It is a volunteer position.

The St. Thomas Junior B Stars hockey team is looking for some help in
developing a community relations plan for this season. The board intends
to set up a CR/PR Committee to assist with implementation, but is
looking for a person with expertise to develop the strategy and plan.
Work would need to begin in August as the season starts mid September.
It would be a quick turnaround, short term project unless the person
wanted to sit on the committee. Might be good for a new grads resume!
Any ideas?take care

Cheers,

Job

Hey again – twice in one day from me… crazy!

I just wanted to let everyone know that the job I had in Banff that I talked about during class is available. If anyone’s looking to move west for a few months, it was an amazing opportunity, and I had more fun than I can begin to talk about!

If anyone’s interested, drop me an email at rachel_brown19@hotmail.com and I can hook you up with the information you need.

OSAP hint

Hey everyone,

Just thought I’d pass along something I learned today at work – and some other people didn’t seem to know about it either so I figured I’d try and let everyone know.

For OSAP, even though you don’t have to start paying your loan until 6 months after graduation, your loan WILL accumulate interest…. therefore EVEN more money to pay back.

Just thought everyone might want to know, in case you are waiting the 6 months before you start paying without thinking about the interest.

Job Opp – from Dana

Hello

Thanks Melissa for providing the address.

 Yes. There is a job opportunity at Lashbrook Group for a short contract position. I do not have many details.

 Send your resumes to Jennifer Wain by tomorrow or Monday latest (contact info on their website). If you have sent your resume there before, I see nothing wrong with re-sending it.

Please let me know if you submit a resume.

I will send some grad pics soon, including the group shots.

JOB from Dana

Any job seekers left in London?

E-mail from Dana, as follows:

Hello Melissa

I am at home and cannot locate the email of the class that Chris Clarke created. I have posted info on FOL about a potential 2-3 month contract position at Lashbrook. They would like resume submissions. soon.

If you have a way to point the group, or even alert a few people in the class in London, to check FOL that would be wonderful. I am sure people are not checking FOL often.

Dana

So…heads up to keep checking FanshaweOnline and send Dana your resume dmorningstar@fanshawec.ca!!!

Bye for now!
