As part of my job as program manager, I worked on 2 programs in one week for the month of February (which, btw, where did you go February? Why is it March already!?). On Valentine's Day, we closed the Zone to the public and took reservations for couples and groups. We decorated the space, got some extra tables, and created a price-fixed menu. It was a little crazy making sure everyone got their food in a timely manner, but overall everyone was pleased and the crew and Adam did a great job! Then, 3 days later, we hosted the Quest for the Scarlet Knight's Soul Mate. It was especially challenging to prepare for this event having hosted an event earlier in the week, but we pulled it off! We had 8 contestants, all of whom had a different persona, and 3 celebrity judges from the Rutgers community. Each contestant was judged on creativity, the correctness of their trivia answers, and for the very last round, Scarlet Spirit questions designed to determine if they were indeed the Scarlet Knight's Soul Mate. Of course, the Scarlet Knight himself was in attendance, and I think he was pretty happy when we picked the number 1 Rutgers Fan as the winner! Our own Steph Thomas showed her Scarlet Pride and took home the title, AND a brand new flat screen TV!! RU Sure sponsored the TV, and also an additional TV that was raffled off to a lucky audience member!!
While I was really stressed leading up to the event, and would suggest never doing 2 programs in one week again, I am happy with how the event turned out, and think all who attended had a nice time!
