A professional headshot is a vital component of self-marketing. We trust Ed Baumgarten with this task, as he simplifies the process so much that the most challenging part of the morning is arranging the class from shortest to tallest. To practice introducing upcoming speakers, our crew took turns introducing one another after a valuable presentation on introductions by Bev Soltwedel.

As Project 2026 kicked off, the students dove into crafting a plan for both their badge business and this year's Trash to Cash Challenge. The week concluded with some team-building activities, featuring the annual CEO Corrugated Cruisers Competition. A big thank you to Mike Dirks for allowing us to use the beach (and providing some floatation devices)!
