There will be a field trip to view and review a concession operation during an event. This year the field trip is to observe the University of Arizona concessions operation during a Men's Basketball Game. Students will review the setup, gametime operation and closing of this event. We will discuss our findings and observations the following morning in class.

Our interactive learning environment encourages each student to share their ideas & experience. A valuable part of the class is learning from each other and how different concessions operations handle facility restrictions, special events, staff or NPO (Non-Profit Organization) issues, information related to design problems, and other practical solutions that can be immediately applied.

Each day will end with a quiz of that day’s material and the 2nd & 3rd day begin with a question & answer session from topics covered the previous day. The fee for this course is $700 which includes; class manual, daily snacks and one dinner.
