Collaborated Project With A WCCC Student and FWCPD

LEBANON, OH -- Back in September Mackenzie Waggamn, a senior student at the Warren County Career Center and intern here at WarrenCountyPost.com took on a rather large project for the Friends of Warren County Park District. Waggamn created a 2024 Warren County Park District Calendar highlighting many of Nature Close To Home’s Dave Woehr’s photos.

Woehr, who has a column here on our digital paper, has had photos and stories in many other periodicals such as the Warren County Magaizne, Lebanon Local, Warren County Park District’s website and Ceasar’s Creeks Nature’s Corner.

The calendar was being created for Friends of the Park to be able to use as a "thank you" to those who donate to FWCPD and to sell as a fundraiser.

The calendar was created to teach WCCC media students how their knowledge and talents in graphic design can be used in the “real” world. 

During this project Waggamnn learned the process of layout and design, pagination, selling ads, working with the client in making the ads, collecting payment from the client, deadlines, printing, saddle stitching and distribution.

There was a small bump in the road, as this was the first attempt of what hopes to turn into an annual project for a WCCC media student and FWCPD, the saddle machine went down at the school, right before break. But thanks to Lebanon’s Minute Man Press the calendars were stiched together and ready for distribution before the new year of 2024 starts.
