Bryce Leafman (2012), a percussionist in the Bay area, was in Atlanta auditioning for the symphony and needed a place to stay, and fellow Scholar Benie Bolohan (2014) offered to host him. They did not know each other before but now they are fast friends! That’s the power of the Scholars network. (He came by to see the CCSF staff, too!)
Erin Husbands (2003) visited Coca-Cola headquarters while in Atlanta with friends. She owns a pageant consulting company in Baton Rouge called The Crowing Moment. and will be competing in the Miss Earth Pageant in Las Vegas in June!
