World’s Fair: A Cultural And Philanthropic Success

Families, students and the general public took a trip around the world over the weekend just by hanging out at Stevenson.

World’s Fair was back and in person and not only exposed Fair-goers to multiple cultures, but also contributed a generous donation to the Stevenson Foundation. The Diversity Council (DIVCO), which sponsored World’s Fair, capped the event by presenting Linda Knapp of the Stevenson Foundation with a $10,000 check, proceeds from its food sales over the weekend.

The Fair featured booth experiences in the Wood Commons and Forum that included not only food but also activities and educational content on cultures from 30 different countries and cultural organizations. There were also performances in the PAC representing different countries.

Intramural Flag Football Crowns Champions

It was Championship Sunday for intramural flag football over the weekend as the season concluded with four division winners: seniors, juniors, freshmen and girls. There was only one sophomore team this season, so that team played in the junior division.

The winners of the 2021 IM flag football championships were: the Cowboys in the girls division, the Ducks in the senior division, the Inferno in the junior division and the Zoo Keepers in the freshmen division.

Athletic Results

Boys Cross Country: Sophomore Dylan Zimmerman advanced to the sectional at the boys regional over the weekend with a time of 17:31.86. The IHSA Class 3A Sectional will take place at Busse Woods in Hoffman Estates on Saturday. Zimmerman was inadvertently omitted from Monday’s cross country recap.
