Team Huddle prior to presentation |
The Graceland ENACTUS [formerly SIFE] team made the trek to Cincinnati last week to compete in the combined Regional and National Competition. They were awesome and placed in the top 12 teams in the Nation!!! Two of the six presenters, Lynley Closson and Karl Bradford, were on the Zambian Team in January. We were so proud to see the HealthEd Connect logo on the screen as they described the Zambian projects they helped develop as well as the many other programs they supported locally. One of their Lamoni projects that has been super successful is "Midnight Munchies." For those of you who know Lamoni, you are aware it has a population of around 2,000 residents. Not too much night life for university students in a town that small! The ENACTUS students worked with 4 small local food venues in town
to take turns staying open from 10:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. once a week. The Graceland students love it, the merchants have increased their revenue, and a new tradition has been born!
