Terre Haute North Welcomes Guest Speaker
The Terre Haute North program featured guest speaker Lonnie Bedwell. Lonnie does not allow the fact that he is blind limit him from living an adven
turous life. As a blind person Lonnie has scaled mountains, kayaked wild rivers and snow skied down advanced slopes. He talked about overcoming obstacles and not living with fear (false evidence about reality) or pity (poor information towards yourself).
THN Jag President Lauryn Taylor led the meeting and asked all officers to take a pledge to full fill the duties they have been elected to do. The Vice President of Leadership Development assisted with the ceremony. Students enjoyed a meal from China Wok. JAG Members had invited four of their peers to attend the ceremony. All students were respectful and ass
isted with the set up and tear down. The meeting was held in the Teacher’s Lounge at North High School.

Terre Haute North JAG Hosts Halloween Carnival
The JAG students at Terre Haute North recently hosted a Halloween Carnival at the Ryyves Hall Haunted House.
JAG students were there early to set up game stations. This gave the young children something else to do while the haunted house tours occurred. JAG students organized games and prizes for the children. We had a toilet paper toss, a face painting table, a count the candy corn game, Halloween bingo, free apple teeth treats, and a broom/pumpkin race. Prizes were given to the children as well. It was a great success and our JAG students felt great about their service. There were around 75 young children in attendance. They enjoyed the games and interacting with the JAG students.
