With 100% turnout, the students of Project Success went to Taylor, MI to operate an entire simulation of running a city. In fact they even had a Mayor(Enoch Cole), Judge(Vincent Upshaw) and Police Chief(Moses Hubbert) to help with City Hall while businesses lead by Derrick Coleman/ Donald Byrd/Terrell Davis(Newspaper), Adrian Wood/Rodney Estell(Landlord), Mario Carson/Bryan Banks(Sign Shop), Trevion Elmore/Reginald Dawson(Techno Ctr). Fine dining service was provided by Richard Tarver/Lenell Amos at their bistro while listening to the radio broadcast provided by Jhalma Hale/Maurice Wright at WJAMS. This was all made possible thru business loans made by Bruce DeBerry/Justin Alexander(Credit Union). In just 5 hours the students brought businesses to life, paid city taxes, made payrolls and had hands on experience of what it takes to make a city like SUCCESSVILLE thrive.
