last month over 25 students and staff had the opportunity to be special guest of the renowned Harlem Globetrotters. The event was sponsored through a partnership that Jacksonville Job Corps has with E-3 Business Group, Inc. Mr. Anthony Butler, Executive Director of the corporation was instrumental in arranging the special event for the students.
The event was held at Jacksonville’s Veterans Memorial Arena as part of their 2011 World Tour. Hundreds of fans looked on to watched the globetrotters showcase their amazing talent and skills. The students had the opportunity to ask questions and take photos with the stars. “It was an awesome opportunity for our students,” stated Mr. Kenderson Hill, Center Director of the Jacksonville Job Corps.
