BONUS EPISODE – Get an insider look into the field hospital and testing center at “The Dunk” as we talk with Cheryl Cohen, Director of Booking, Marketing & PR for Dunkin’ Donuts Center and Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence. In a world where live events have been on pause since March 2020, Cheryl talks about how they’ve transformed the convention center into an in-use 600 person capacity field hospital for sick COVID-19 patients, what it’s like working with the Rhode Island National Guard, the experience of utilizing their arena as a walk-up rapid COVID-19 testing site as well as using their parking garages for additional testing.
