The Career Center of Big Bear made up a crew of current and follow-up WIA students to volunteer at the Denim and Diamonds Gala on March 8th. Denim and Diamonds is one of the biggest fundraising events that Big Bear hosts! This memorable night included a fun theme (western attire and glitter anyone?), live auctions that featured some great prizes from local businesses, live music, and serving an amazing dinner for a great cause! All of the money they raise goes to supporting educational programs serving the Big Bear School District.
With our cowboy hats on, we worked through the evening, and we saw just how much work goes into putting together a large event like this one. Our crew was split up to go to the areas that they needed help most, and I think we all learned a lot about customer service and working in a fast-paced environment. It was great to be able to help out such a spectacular cause! I hope that the Career Center has a chance to help out again next year!
