For the second year in a row, community college horticulture students from across Virginia volunteered their time yesterday to help prepare the governor’s mansion for the holiday season.
“It’s not every day you get to come in here and decorate,” said Sheryl Hall, a Virginia Western Community College horticulture student. “I could never turn down an opportunity to say I decorated the governor’s mansion.”
“It’s a wonderful experience,” added Dena Parker, a student of J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College. “It’s a hands-on opportunity you carry with you.”
