Junior Events Manager/Push go-cart assitant

I worked at Cape Kaskar on part time basis, as and when there were events. Cape Kaskar hires out push go-carts for school events. The job involved running push go-kart events at schools, either alone or with an assistant – setting up of track, monitoring the event and ensuring safety during it. There was also a large practical component, requiring me to do basic maintenance on the go-karts as well as constructing a freestanding awning.
