We moved into Phase 2 of leadership this morning -- group leadership. After a team building and problem solving activity (which one group finished in only 10 minutes!), we had a panel discussion on media. The ambassadors had so many great questions for each of the panelists. Our panelists:
Kent Cornish, the Kansas Association of Broadcasters President
Beth Howell Day, Wamego Smoke Signal Newspaper Editor
Officer Matthew Droge, Public Information Officer for Riley County Police Department
Corey Reeves, Operations Director of Manhattan Broadcasting Station
After the panel was the Career Luncheon, sponsored by Westar Energy. Professionals from a variety of fields (accounting, law, medicine, photography, banking, business, architecture, agriculture, economics, law enforcement, higher education, pharmaceuticals, biology, etc.).
After the luncheon, the ambassadors hosted a carnival for community children, sponsored by Meritrust. It was high energy, lots of fun for everyone, and gave the ambassadors a chance to welcome children and cheer them on as they played various carnival games. They're now participating in more service projects for the rest of the afternoon!
