Details

Our organization is able to offer a virtual internship opportunity for (1 | 2 | 3) students or teams.

I host an even in Jasper, the Jasper Canadian rockies Half Marathon, each April. This years event was cancelled due to covid.  As we had to cancel within 3 weeks of the event, we were unable to provide refunds/credits/rollovers to our participants.  Many were fine with it, but there was a very vocal group that were not.

The primary focus for the student will be:

To review the negativity and find a way to 'win back' those participants, plus market the 2021 event beyond the current base of athletes.

We will plan to communicate with our virtual intern using these communication tools: phone, e-mail, zoom

Student's primary contact: Trevor Soll - Owner and Director
