I am very fortunate to work at the Michigan Renaissance Festival (MIRF) doing what I am passionate about. MIRF is quite unique and so are their loyal patrons. Our venue has almost 300,000 patrons in just a seven weekend time frame. This year is our 45th Anniversary. A large number of our patrons have been coming to our event for more than 20 years. The highlight of my position as Marketing Manager is getting to know some of loyal patrons and hearing their stories about the festival. They tell their stories with the same passion I have for marketing. It really makes my position fulfilling.
