2015 GAME PLAN
Breaking Through is our signature spring event where we celebrate our interns’ accomplishments in the workplace and in CCC. Our goals are to celebrate student
accomplishments as a part of our program and to reinforce commitment to the program and build positive relationships with supervisors/families/community members. We’re
anticipating around 800+ people at the event.
We want students to feel celebrated, recognized, and proud. We want supervisors to feel like they’re part of a movement, connected to the mission, and valued. And we want
families to feel proud, acknowledged, and inspired. Providing top notch customer service is extremely important. Remember to be excited, enthuuuusiastic, and smile. Your
positive attitudes are contagious for our guests! Also, be sure you eat a late lunch! A meal/snacks will not be provided until the dessert reception.

Supervisor & Supporter table logistics: Family members will be creating their own nametags. Your job is to: 1. Greet supervisors and supporters with a smile and welcome them to the Breaking Through Ceremony. 2. Ask for their last name and hand them their nametag and a program. 3. If they don’t have a nametag, have them make one! 4. Let them know the program will start at 6 PM, and for them to go in the venue, find a seat, and enjoy the program! 5. Thank them again for coming. 6. NICOLE: COLLECT the remaining nametags at the end of the registration period. Make sure they are still in alpha order.
