For the event Kieran (another intern) and myself organised the 'Sweep Stakes' betting game where all proceeds went to CanTeen. After the race when the winners were sorted, I had to make the announcement in front of the 150+ guests of the event.
X-Factor contestant Sydnee Carter performed followed by a hilarious Michael Jackson impersonator who sung and danced to about 5 Michael Jackson songs which got the entire crowd dancing. While events are not my preference, I definitely enjoy the end result of seeing them be executed with excellence.
Good luck finalising your reports!

Wow Joseph!
It sounds like an awesome event filled with lots of glitz and glamour! I'm sure you must have had a ball of a time!
I can relate to the sense of accomplishment that you must have felt after the completion of a successful event - I felt the same as well when I assisted in planning an event for my placement.
Trust me - I also do understand the painstaking effort that is needed to plan and coordinate an event, but definitely events are a good way of gaining wonderful insight as to how attention to detail is very much emphasised. This is a skill and trait that I'm sure is sought after by many employers and I believe that you will do well in your career in the future as well!
All the best of luck in your future career!
