Annually, my family an I travel to Yuma, Az to participate in the SHOC Racing golf tournament. This tournament raises money for the my uncle Oscar and his crew members to race in the Baja 1000 in Mexico. When we do arrive to the golf course in Yuma we already have designated jobs. This year I helped with sign in, passing their goodie bags and shirts/hats out and I was at the Caddy Shack hole with trivia and selling raffle tickets. During this experience I learned that I have the ability to sell all of the raffle tickets to the participating golfers. Also I learned that the Yuma community is very supportive of SHOC Racing; the owner of the golf coarse lets my uncle use their space for free for an entire day and also participates in the tournament. Communication is very important in this event which meant I had to talk with other adults in making sure there wasn't to much chaos. Using the communication skills I have learned with this experience I be more prepared when it comes to working with others in events.
