Last week was Sponsors Week, and it came with a wonderful surprise. The National Beta video was released, and WCJH was featured!
Some of our scholars have already seen it and seeing their faces light up at being part of a national production made every bit of hard work worth it.
The Clip: You can find us at the 1:45 mark of the video linked here: https://vimeo.com/1161595381?share=copy&fl=sv&fe=ci&mc_cid=178adf1d3c&mc_eid=4bb8aed337
On top of that, we are currently in the running for the John W. Harris Leadership Award. Please keep us in your thoughts and send some good vibes our way as we hope to secure a win for our club!
