Find your place. Build your future.
Learn what it actually takes to plan, coordinate, and execute exceptional private club events.
Pine Hollow Club’s 14-week Events & Catering Management Internship is a paid, hands‑on experience designed for students interested in event planning, hospitality, and catering operations.
You will gain experience throughout the event lifecycle—from initial planning and event details through internal coordination, setup, execution, and post-event follow‑up.
This is not an internship spent watching from the sidelines. You will work alongside the Events team and contribute to actual weddings, private celebrations, golf outings, receptions, dinners, and other Club functions.
Please note:
This opportunity is specifically designed for students who are currently enrolled in an educational program and seeking an internship or externship as part of their academic or professional development. Applicants who are not currently enrolled in school will not be considered for this internship. We encourage you to visit our Careers page to explore other employment opportunities with Pine Hollow Club.

As you progress, you may help update event details, prepare timelines and checklists, review floor plans, attend walkthroughs, verify room readiness, coordinate with other departments, and take greater ownership of appropriate pieces of the event process.
The program concludes with an Events & Catering project focused on a real Club opportunity. You may develop an event concept, improve a planning tool or checklist, create a room‑readiness guide, or recommend an improvement to an existing event process.
