FM #1415 - Franklin Fest centers on Flag Football Tournament - 03/21/25

This session shares my conversation with Quinten Jones, originally from Winchester, VA and a senior at Dean College.  We had our discussion in person in the Franklin TV & Radio Studio on Friday, March 21, 2025. 

We cover 

• The course requirements to prepare and conduct an event
• Flag football tournament chosen
• Hockomock YMCA in Franklin to benefit from proceeds
• Fun family day with food and other activities 

The recording runs about 12 minutes, so let’s listen in.

--------------

As part of our Event Management & Operations class, we are tasked with planning and executing a successful event—and we’d love for you to be a part of it! All proceeds from the event will be donated to the Franklin YMCA!
