The What's Upstate Experience: Blue Sox Baseball & Meet Local Industry Night

Work hard. Summer hard.
Join fellow interns for an evening of networking, baseball, and classic summer fun at historic Murnane Field, home of the Utica Blue Sox.
The evening begins with a casual Meet Local Industry Night, where representatives from some of the Mohawk Valley's leading employers, organizations, and innovative businesses will be on hand to share what they do, discuss career paths, and answer questions about building a future in the region. Whether you're exploring career options, making professional connections, or simply curious about the area's industries, this is a great opportunity to meet local professionals in a relaxed setting.
Afterward, grab a complimentary hot dog and beverage, find your seat in the bleachers, and enjoy America's pastime as the Utica Blue Sox take on the Diamond Dawgs in a PGCBL Eastern Division matchup.
As the sun sets over Murnane Field, you'll experience one of the best parts of a Mohawk Valley summer: community, conversation, and baseball under the lights.
This event is designed to help interns build connections beyond the workplace, discover local opportunities, and experience the kind of quality of life that makes the region a great place to live, work, and play.
