Annie Taggart - 1st Place in Promotional Bulletin Board, a design and speaking contest.
Andrew Clink - 1st Place in Advertising Design, a hands-on, 6 hour contest.
Hailey Junod - 1st Place in Commercial Photography.
To win the state SkillsUSA event, the student had to compete on a local level, regional level, (held at the Traverse Bay Area Career Center,) and eventually beat the other competitors from the other six regions. To appreciate the number of students in a given competition, one must figure 40 competitors on the local level multiplied by 4 or 5 schools per region, multiplied by the 6 regions. This means that a Newaygo County champion may have beaten as many as 1,000 other students.
