What are they saying?
"Everyone in the school district thought that it was the coolest thing that there is a mascot camp. You got rave reviews, and great media coverage. I was the center of three feature stories, all of which mentioned your website and your camp! Yeah, but it gets better... the school board was amazed at everything we learned, and is considering a second trip for me. Still more, the Jaguar has been getting tons of interest, and was even on TV! Every part of the school wants to get in on the Jaguar fever! We are going to be running the program with a yearly budget. This will cover all giveaways from football season, basketball season, volleyball season, pep rallies and general expenses. The alumni association has asked all 65 classes to donate money to an operation fund. Its wonderful! Almost done, promise! (My fingers were crossed.) We have also been able to launch a site for the mascot, like a hub for people to flock to." - 'Monty' the Jaguar Thomas Jefferson (PA) High School
"The video review was well received by my family at a recent family gathering. Evan could not wait to show it off! He is still talking about what a wonderful time he had. Your insight and inspiration to what a mascot brings to a community is wonderful. Sometimes we need to see things through others' eyes. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. Your enthusiasm is contagious!" -Cheryl Miller Oneonta (NY) High School
