As summer comes to an end, we took the opportunity to ask our ACT volunteers about their favorites in terms of music, media, and traditions. Consider joining our team as a member of Cohort 23 and your favorites may be featured in our Fall favorites!

As summer comes to an end, we took the opportunity to ask our ACT volunteers about their favorites in terms of music, media, and traditions…

“What’s a book that you’ve read this summer that stood out to you?” “What’s a summer must-watch TV show?”

Since the movies are on a generational run, we wanted to hear from ACT members what their favorite film was in theaters this summer… no surprise that nearly half of the program enjoyed Curry Barker’s “Obsession”

“What’s a favorite summer comfort watch?”

We asked members their choice of drink to cool down on a hot day… and compiled an ACT ice cream bowl of our team’s favorite flavors!

As summer wraps, we asked what’s one personal or professional goal our team members are hoping to accomplish… join us in wishing them good luck on their endeavors!
