St. Clair County Community College is hosting the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division II Women’s Basketball National Championship through March 19, 2022, and players took some time this week to have some fun and donate to a good cause.
Through a partnership with the Blue Water Area Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB), the girls playing in the tournament were able to participate in team-building activities at the Blue Water Convention Center. One activity had teams compete to assemble a new bicycle, and the Convention Center was buzzing with activity as they raced to finish first.
The winning bike-building team was from Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and all 16 bikes assembled in the competition were donated to the St. Clair County Child Abuse and Neglect Council.
The Blue Water CVB had fun with the competition and shared a highlight video of the night’s event on their TikTok page which you can find on TikTok at Discover the Blue.
