Frederick’s First Snow ❄️
🎉🎉🎉Scholarship Day at Hood was a resounding success! We were able to obtain 341 donors as part of these efforts (well beyond our 200 goal!). More than $165,567 was raised with the challengers’ leadership participation of $88,820 included. THANK YOU! 🥁And now, a drum roll please! The winner of the Battle of the Decades, with 82 participants, is the 1970s – huge congratulations to them, their lead challengers, and all the participants from that decade! Big shout out and kudos to the 60s, the 80s and the 20s (a tie!) who rounded out the top spots. Check out the Scholarship Day page to see all the decades stats! www.hood.edu/scholarshipday
