I am excited that I kicked off 2020 with a bang. Living Sport has done it again with providing amazing opportunities to those who want to pursue a career in the sports industry. This time was no exception as it was an exclusive opportunity to those program alumni that have traveled with Living Sport as part of the International Sport Business Program.
Back in December, Alicia (the Founder & President of Living Sport) reached out to the alumni group about an opportunity to work the Fan Fair at the 2020 NHL All-Star Weekend in St. Louis, Missouri. I jumped at the chance.
In order to make this trip happen a fellow Living Sport Alum, Maryssa Bridges (a Dublin ‘19 alum who I didn’t travel with but met at another Living Sport function) and I drove from Colorado Springs, Colorado to St. Louis, Missouri. I haven't had to do a cross country road trip in a while so I forgot what the journey was about, seeing different bits of the states as we drove through. We of course experienced what you may expect on a road trip, a small patch of rough weather while driving through Kansas that was a little hairy for a minute.
