  • Blue Crabs Come up Short of Series Sweep, Lose 2-0
    Blue Crabs Come Up Short Of Series Sweep, Lose 2-0 Posted by TBN(Staff) On 06/25/2021 YORK, Pa. - In the final game of a nine-game road trip, the Blue Crabs were unable to complete the series sweep over the York Revolution on Thursday night. A Southern Maryland loss sends them home to cap off a 7-2 road trip. It was a pitcher’s duel at PeoplesBank Park on Thursday night. Brandon Barker (L, 0-3) and Austin Nicely (W, 2-2) traded scoreless innings through the first two-thirds of the contest. The starters allowed a combined seven hits and zero walks over the first six innings. The first walk of the game was issued by Barker in the top of the seventh inning. After York’s Jack Kenley drew the free pass, he would come around to the score one of two Revs runs in the bottom of the seventh inning. In a game dominated by defense, a two-run inning was the difference maker, handing the Revs a 2-0 victory. After scoring a whopping 68 runs in their last eight games, the Blue Crabs were shutout on Thursday night. Despite the 2-0 loss, Southern Maryland won their third straight series and finished their road trip with a 7-2 record. The Blue Crabs play host to the Revs this weekend, beginning with a double header on Friday night. About the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs The Blue Crabs play in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball. The Blue Crabs, set to kick off their 13th season of baseball, call Regency Furniture Stadium in Waldorf, Maryland home.

  • Mystery Shopper on Your Journey Around Cadbury World - It Is Your Opinion
    Study Tour Booklet Topics covered in this booklet are: Customer needs Communication Presentation of staff Customer records Created by S McLoughlin and C Marsh 2005 (Education Consultants) Cadbury World Cadbury World is the UK’s leading paid admission visitor centre, and it’s the 30th biggest tourist attraction (Visit Britain “Visits to Tourist Attractions 2002) it was opened at a cost of £5.9 million, in 1990. It was seen as a new venture into leisure, to rival other leisure attraction operators, but was principally a public relations tool, which quickly became a popular half-day visit for devotees of Cadbury’s chocolate, of all ages. Cadbury World is owned by Cadbury U.K. It is self-contained in that it has no direct responsibility for the marketing of individual confectionery brands, although there is a major (unquantified) contribution to the image of the Cadbury master-brand. The original vision for Cadbury World was to be an alternative attraction for the many thousands of members of the public denied access to the Bournville factory since 1969. Factory tours ceased around the time of the merger between Cadbury and Schweppes. In setting up Cadbury World, in the face of strict health and safety and hygiene legislation, the vision was to underpin the central message of “Cadbury means chocolate means fun” with the interpretation of cocoa and Cadbury’s chocolate both past and present. Later, the vision developed as follows: To significantly enhance consumers’ perceptions of Cadbury and develop long term brand loyalty by: • Giving the visitor a memorable and enjoyable, uniquely Cadbury chocolate experience • Offering high quality and good value for money • Delivering Cadbury values of fun and family, whilst achieving a break-even cost target for Cadbury Limited.
