The RJC Corporation Annual
General Meeting and Fundraisings
Banquet, held on October 24, was a huge success. The event celebrated
the achievements of the RJC athletics program through the years. As part of the evening, alumni and current
students were interviewed during a light-hearted Mennonite Sports Central
