Congratulations to the White County High School JROTC. They conducted their First Military Ball, on Feb. 1, 2025. This event is a traditional event held by the military annually.

WCHS JROTC students dressed up for the formal event at Chestnut Falls, which included a dinner and a grog ceremony, concluding with a dance. The grog ceremony is a time-honored event where different ingredients are added in order to make a drink for toasting specific things. This year the students made a healthy concoction, which some were hesitant to try but ultimately went down pretty smoothly.

A huge thank you to the WCHS administrators for their support. We were honored by Principal Greg Wilson and his wife, Mr. Lane Ward and his wife, and Mr. Scott Wilson. We would also like to thank the director of schools, Mr. Kurt Dronebarger, for his remarks and Mr. Wilson for his speech.
