Now that I am more familiar with the ins and outs of TSSS, today was a lot more enjoyable and less stressful than Monday.  The first half of the morning consisted of making phone calls to U15 girls lacrosse coaches to invite them to the Rainier LAX Cup on July 14th & 15th.  

The Rainier LAX Cup is South Sound Washington’s first-ever girl’s U15 Regional Lacrosse Tournament & U19 VIP Challenge.  The top U15 girl’s lacrosse teams from the Northwest come together for 2 days to compete in a unique tournament with the hopes of winning the coveted Rainier Lax Cup. This tournament is a fun fast-paced competition designed for school/ club programs who desire to continue playing beyond their spring lacrosse season into the summer. 

This is one of the main projects I was assigned on Monday as an intern.  It is my job to get teams to register for this tournament along with finding sponsors and vendors.  Though I was unable to physically get any teams to register today, I had spoken with a lot of interested coaches who I sent personal emails to with more detailed information about the event.     

The second half of the day I updated the social media sites (Twitter, Facebook & Blog) about the PLU's softball team and their national championship.  I also researched and made a list of possible vendors and sponsors for the LAX cup and looked up major events in the region that will be taking place in 2013.

Tim, president of TSSS, had sent out an email to the staff to create a mission statement for the Let's Play event in January.  I took my time trying to come up with something original then wrote it on the white board in the meeting room (as directed in the email).  Not going to lie I am a little nervous for others to read it, though I am confident in my "skills" it is still rather exciting/nerve wrecking to think these business professionals are going to be reviewing my work and critiquing it.  I am now going to be anxiously awaiting for the next board meeting when we vote on whose mission statement is going to be selected for this huge event, =).
