On January 12, 2017, Shiloh FBLA went on a very fun field trip to see the Atlanta Hawks. We did a lot more than just watch a basketball game. Brett Stefansson, the Vice President and General Manger of Phillips Arena, spoke to us about the management side of professional basketball. He also talked about the behind the scenes work of the Phillips Arena and new and upcoming expansion for the Hawks. Members also participated in a marketing competition where they created marketing strategies. Members were introduced to many people in marketing. They gave details about their jobs and what steps they took to get to their position. In addition to the business side, students had a lot of fun. There was a shoot-out competition where students tried to shoot as many basketballs as possible. We also had an opportunity to visit the College Football Hall of Fame.
