Greetings Alumni and Friends!
|
 The first Inshore Fishing Tournament was a success in spite of windy conditions. Twenty-fishermen participated in this first ever event. They enjoyed the event so much, they asked for another! We are also excited that just under $3,000 was collected in profit from the event. All of the proceeds will go to benefit the JCJC Foundation's scholarships. THANK YOU!!! to our sponsors, fishermen, Mary Walker Marina, and to the ladies who helped coordinate the event! Because this went so well, we are exploring the possibility of holding a fishing tournament in the fall and spring. So, keep your fishing poles handy! As we finish football and soccer seasons, Basketball season begins! We hope to see you at our upcoming Bobcat Club gathering in January if not sooner!
Until next time......Go Bobcats!!

Forty-six JCJC students, including the JCJC students who are pictured, Caitlyn Oliphant, Malachi Crabtree and Anna Wilks, each received $975 in scholarship money from Pearl River Valley Electric Power Association's "Round Up for Education Scholar's Program." The program is only in its third year, but more than 550-community college students have benefited from the generosity of the PRVEPA members who decide to round off their bill to the closest dollar.
