I'll
Vote For That
Marketing Kempsville High: It’s
been some time since I’ve walked
the halls of Kempsville High School
as a student, but I’ve always
known it as a special place. And
students from the school's Advanced
Marketing course are ensuring that
it stays that way. Two teams recently
created School Spirit t-shirts to
market Kempsville High, and it played
out like an episode of The Apprentice.
Both sides are selling their respective “K-Ville” t-shirts
with the proceeds going to charity.
The lessons they’ll learn about
marketing, teamwork and community
are of the highest value, and they
were rightly congratulated in a Virginian-Pilot
article. I join the paper in offering
them well-deserved kudos. There are
hundreds of volunteer efforts like
this throughout our community and
I am proud to live in a city where
that spirit is vibrant and encouraged
from the top down. I'll vote for
that!
