Yesterday and today are two days that my supervisors as well as a few managers and fellow employess are starting to discuss preparation for the outdoor pool.  we have gone through diagrams on what equipment goes where and how to manage space to  accomidate more people to attend.  this process will conduct about a 3 week preparation time for the pool to be ready for use.  we will pressure wash the entire pool deck, as well as all the funiture that is provided for our customers and guests.  there will have to be some time spent re-slingiing some loinge chairs, which I had learned to do last spring.  this year I am able to teach other people how to re-sling to achieve more work at a faster rate.  the more people we have around to help set up the operation for the summer can make a lot more stresss free for my supervisor.  I will be able to take the roll of organizing and planning
 
Last friday night was our final indoor happy our of the year.  as dealing with this event the staff i work with assists my supervisor in setting up tables, charis, and a stage for the entertainer as well as guests.  I have learned how to properly set up for a simple event that can be concluded at any place of businss.  the amount of space used is not too large but big enough to make extra moeny and please our guests.  The many times I have dealt with happy hour I have learned from my supervisor how to arrange, orgainze and plan an event at our venue.  The planning process for summer hapy hour has already begun.  Here I am working with my supervisior to arrange music entertainment and the food that will be provided for each happy hour 
 
Today at the sports club I will
Be setting up tables and bar tabletops for a chef tasting be held at our club this evening. Here we provide members and guest with drinks and sample of one of the sponsoring resturants in the area. This benefits the employer as well as bring in revenue for our own company. The average number of guests is usually around 20-50 people. After the event is conducted I will return tables and chairs to there proper locations. We will sweep the floors and set up the room for the next event held. Usually this is only a table with 16 chairs set up as a meeting room.
 
The past two Friday night we have had some really cool features to our Friday night social. In order for this to go on I had to set up for this event. Setting up included moving tables and chairs to proper locations for our guests to utilize. Two weeks ago we had the Cincinnati zoo bring in a cheetah to show and tell the guests and kids about this real love animal. Just this past week the Cincinnati zoo brought a few types of birds including a penguin to show and tell about to people. I assisted anything the zoo keepers needed in order for them to work without any problems. At the conclusion of these events I would clean up trash and put tables and chairs back to proper location. During the events I assist anyone whom may need assistance to ensure that there are no problems.
 
On Friday January 11, 2013; the sports club held the first seasonal Indoor happy hour. We set up a stage, approximately 20 tables with 130 chairs, 10 high top bar tables with 40 stools, one inflatable bouncy house with a slide, giant inflatable skee ball, and a giant twister game. The even ran for three hours that night in which I maintained the bouncy house and help entertain kids as they jumped in the play area. All of this particular event was held on the soccer field. At the conclusion of the event our team of 8 people broke down the event, putting everything back to its original location so the two soccer games could be played that night. After folding up the inflatable, I helped the Beatles tribute band that played music for w event take their equipment to their vehicles. After I had concluded that I vaccines the soccer field as the rest of my team proceeded to put tables and chairs away. This concluded my 9 hour day at work. Each Friday we conduct a happy hour event for our members and guests. My job to to ensure these events are ready to be held as well as the cleaning up after the event has concluded.
 
Today while at the sports club I experienced cleaning the I door pool as well as spa. In addition I helped my supervision hang new soccer goal nets on the indoor field while also vaccuming the field when I was finished.
 
My name is Kyle Danbury and I am interning at the Cincinnati sports club in Cincinnati Ohio. Here I will deal with day to day activities such as operations of outdoor pool, indoor soccer field, and indoor pool. I will also be assisting in any type of parties held at he club. I will gain the expienerce and knowledge to run and operate pools and soccer leagues. I have been enjoying the opportunity given to me and will make the best of it that I can.
 
The summer is out to a great start at the sports club.  Many people have been using the pool
due to the extreme heat.   Knowing I can make a difference in customers experiences make me feel good about how well I am performing my job
tasks?   My experience so far through achieving all the tasks I’ve been assigned for has started to develop me as a more rounded employee with the knowledge needed to succeed in this
particular industry.  
 
This week we also had the city health inspector come inspect the
pool.  He ensures that the water chemicals are healthy for being to swim in, as well as be sure to search the diving board, ladders, and guard chairs to make sure they are properly attached.  This was a good experience to deal with in understanding how the health inspector conducts
inspections, so I know better for the next time to properly and regularly check
these specific items.  Knowing what is needed to be inspected form the health inspector, I can help maintain the safety of our pool.                

 
With the pool being open and operating for customers, it is highly important to maintain the cleanness of the outdoor pool area.  Each morning I came into work my duties consisted of me being sure all trash and bird poo was free of the area.  While attending to these needs, the
closing staff the night before gets rated on how well they close each
night.  Preforming these evaluations each morning helped us keep a clean well maintained facility.  Providing a clean facility for customers to attain to allows me to feel good about my job and how I have  performed it.  A satisfied customer
creates a satisfied work staff.  
 
As well as developing the pool area for the club, I also had to
slide in the maintaining of the indoor soccer program. 
I cleaned the soccer field once every Wednesday with a large vacuum, as
well as scrubbing the walls with bleach to maintain its color (white).Each
Monday of the week I preformed the schedule for teams to play as well as a
staffing schedule.   

 
Week 1


               
-The first week on the job was the toughest week of the summer.  The importance of this week was to get
  everything cleaned and prepared for opening the outdoor pool for the
summer.  With over 400 pieces of
furniture that needed to be pressure-washed as well as the entire concrete pool
deck.  This was a long process due
to only having access to three pressure washers and limited employees.  Between Mike, Cory, Kevin, and myself
we had to prepare everything to get the pool ready for summer use. 
After all furniture was washed as well as the deck we located chairs and
tables to their specific locations. 
This was by far the most manual labor I conducted of the summer.  Although cleaning the soccer field was
the second toughest.  Once we had
everything placed and set up Friday afternoon, we were satisfied as well as the
General Manager.  The pool was
ready to be open.  With all the
regulations a company came in to install the diving board and ladders to enter
and exit the swimming area.
