HVCC Internship Program With The ValleyCat’s!!

The ValleyCats an independent minor league baseball team in the Frontier League, have started an internship program involving their marketing and sales team. HVCC’s School of Business students were emailed last week with information about this internship. The Valley Cats are popularly known for their locality and home field, the Joseph L. Bruno Stadium, right next to Hudson Valley Community College. The internship will focus on the sales and marketing aspects of the sports team. During the first half of the internship, students will focus on using technology to collect and analyze data to help promote ticket sales and ‘drive business development’. The second half of this internship will include real-world experience in terms of marketing and working with the ValleyCats staff to learn about the business development process. The internship will last from May to early September, and students will spend some of their summertime learning the ins and outs of marketing strategy and sales management and development. The ValleyCats are the home of many opportunities for students, such as working concessions, singing the national anthem, or being a game mascot! Many students have received small part-time positions to get a few extra bucks without going too far from campus. Business programs and all their subsections, such as marketing and management, strongly urge internships to promote student success and growth. An internship this close to home is a great chance to get that experience under your belt. This is an amazing opportunity for all business students, so if you’re interested, please check your inbox and look for an email from Rachel C. Farina for more details!
