Success in Sports - The Road from High School to College
Student athletes (and their parents) spend countless hours and invest significant dollars to work on their skill development, strength, speed, etc. When we talk to those athletes and parents after they have spent a couple of years at the college level they all say that they wish they had spent more time choosing the right major, choosing the right college and understanding the costs involved. This FREE forum will be unbelievable for parents. As a parent you are a mentor to your students. To be able to get a candid perspective and have open Q & A with this panel of professionals will be a night you will most certainly remember.
This is an interactive evening to allow the audience to ask the questions.
