The focus of the VCAL Main Event this year was environmental sustainability, specifically our oceans and waterways.
The day went very smoothly and was organized effectively. As convener, my job was to organize and run the event as this task contributes to my Senior Project competency.

We are asking families and friends of the College to sponsor the event with funds raised going towards the work of the Good Sams.
