10) Help Lake
City Secondary win the People's Choice Award on YouTube!
Over the past months, Miss. Black's grade 12 Marketing class went under a process to create a Junior Achievement company. Through hard work, and asking for seed money from a variety of local companies, we raised enough money to purchase a product. That product was, gourmet fortune cookies. All of the net proceeds will be going to the Boys and Girls Club's after school program. They applied for a chance to go to the Junior Achievement Innovation Jam in Vancouver, which only 20 schools in BC can attend if selected to go. We were chosen! Now it was our job to represent Williams Lake and the Cariboo Region.

our world. Lake City Secondary thought of a way to filter CO2 gas that would
normally be pumped into our atmosphere. Our Facebook page Cariboo Cookies. The
