Would you be interested in knowing what type of events? It may be helpful to list a few details of typical events. The viewer may want to know what type of events the company has done in the past. If most of the events are evenings and weekends, it is a good idea to mention this in the description.

ReplyDeleteI have served as this position for the Wives of Major league baseball foundation. It was a lot of fun. You get to work on amazing events and meet a lot of great people.
