Special Thanks to Our Volunteers

This event would not have been possible without the dedication of Âé¶¹¾«Æ·â€™s administration, faculty, staff, and alumni. Each year, they volunteer to moderate, keep score, set up, tear down, clean up, and provide snacks and drinks, all while supporting and cheering on our students.

A heartfelt thank you to Debbie Phelps, Mark Flickinger, Greg Mink, Michael Christensen, Mason Warren, Rhoda MacLaughlin-Ramirez, Charlotte Smith, Fresh Ideas, and CQB alumnus Spencer MacLaughlin for spending their Saturday contributing to the team’s success. Your involvement means so much to our students, who value having Âé¶¹¾«Æ· professionals by their side.

Shoutout to Absent Team Members

We also want to recognize Aidan Holman (B-Team) and Mollie Edge (C-Team), who were absent due to participation in other Âé¶¹¾«Æ· activities.

Congratulations to all our participants, and thank you to everyone who made this event a success!
