About 36 Central Lakes College Upward Bound students, staff and alumni attended the semi-monthly Saturday Academy April 16 at the college's Staples campus.
Students from Long Prairie, Browerville, Staples-Motley, Pierz, Onamia, Isle and Nay Ah Shing participated in educational activities throughout the day.
Activates included a scavenger hunt throughout the campus, which allowed the students to identify different departments throughout the college and how they would utilize each one. There were also game show-themed activities to test knowledge about the services at the college that would help them succeed.
Four TRIO alumni spoke about their experiences in both Upward Bound and in college.
