Students from Morgan Hannon’s and Tara Ortiz’s FACS classes at East Noble High School had the opportunity to tour Parkview Field, home of the Fort Wayne TinCaps today. During their visit, they met Team President Mike Nutter, who welcomed them and shared a brief history of the ballpark. The group then took part in a guided, behind-the-scenes tour that focused on food operations, including how meals are prepared, the work that goes into serving large crowds, and the roles of various employees. Students were able to speak directly with staff and gain insight into the culinary side of the organization, while also learning about summer job opportunities available to high school students. Overall, it was a valuable experience, especially for those interested in careers in culinary arts and food service. We would like to personally thank Mike Nutter, Holly Raney, and the entire Fort Wayne TinCaps organization for giving our students a great tour of the facility.
