JCN sponsored their annual forensics tournament Feb. 6, 2010. We would like to thank the community and the staff at JCN for all of the assistance in providing quality judges and helpers in the concession stand and hospitality room. The JCN students do not perform on this day, but everyone was busy with the tab room, judges' table, and runners. All in all, it was a very successful day and set precedence to a very successful year.
