We’re with nearly 100 sophomores in Valentine for the 7th annual Cherry County “An Intro to Life” event.
It’s “a practice run for the rest of their lives,” as students will spend the day managing a budget, mingling with the dozens of professionals here, and making big decisions!
Kevin Wingard retweeted
This is the most expansive life simulation you’ll see. Students visit budget and life stations, childcare, housing, transportation, insurance, etc.
The volunteers?
“They’re just real people, running businesses in our community. They’ve been where you are, where you’re going.”
