Student power — Pendleton Whisky Music Fest taps duo of interns to run social media

PENDLETON — The Pendleton Whisky Music Fest is getting a boost to its social media.

This year a pair of interns from Utah Tech University is running all of the event’s social media accounts. In the dry Pendleton heat, the interns will wander through the crowds snapping pictures and talking with attendees with the goal of capturing the event in real time.
