What an amazing day for the first African-American History Quiz Bowl, held Feb. 26.

On behalf of the steering committee, we thank our parents, teachers, students and the community members who participated, along with Vicksburg High School’s two teams, Madison Parish (La.) High School and Warren Central.

We appreciate our sponsors — Alpha Kappa Alpha, Mu Xi Omega Chapter; Beulah Cemetery Restoration Committee; the City of Vicksburg; I Can Foundation; Shape Up Sisters; the Vicksburg Warren School District; and the Warren County-Vicksburg Public Library.

Congratulations to the first place winner, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes team from VHS.
