Winners Walk Tall
By Dave Jennings


Kids know about winning and losing. Even at a young age, they want to keep score and they want to know who won and who lost. Everyone wins with Winners Walk Tall (WWT). WWT is a character-building program taught by volunteers to children K-8 in classrooms across the country, Canada and Russia .
Participating in WWT is quick and easy. Character coaches teach the same student group only 10 minutes a week; audio, video and written materials that address the fundamentals of good behavior are provided. Training is available.Ask HPCUMC members Karen Volk, Mark Quarry and Diane Weaver who have found time in their busy schedules to volunteer as WWT Character Coaches and teachers. HPCUMC member Dave Jennings believes in the program so much that he left his accounting job to run the local chapter of WWT. As Dave says, "Good character can be learned and spread throughout the community. Good character strengthens the bonds between schools, churches and communities.
Winners Walk Tall is fun and , just as importantly, it works!"If you'd like to learn more about Winners Walk Tall contact Dave Jennings (at 561-2500, djennings@winnerswalktall.org or go to www.winnerswalktall.org )
