BCM takes talent, gives money to local camp

It was an inspiring moment, when the college students of ULM took time out of their busy schedules to come to the Baptist Collegiate Ministry Tal­ent Show and contribute money to a worthy cause.

The show had a wide range of performances that performed on stage to a packed house.

There were several duets and comedians, and even a rendition of the Spice Girls.

The four young ladies called their group “Old Spice” because the act was portraying the girls 50 years later.

This skit garnered lots of laughs from the audience be­cause most people at the show knew of this all girl, European band that ruled the ‘90s.

Todd Strain, the BCM direc­tor, enjoyed the show, and was excited to raise money for a local camp.

“The money being raised is going to the Seeker Spring Camp, which is a local camp in Ouachita Parish for under privi­leged kids,” Strain said.

He continued to explain how the money will be used for kids who don’t have the money to attend camp.

At the end of the night Aron Hughes, who is a senior biology major from Lufkin, Texas, took the trophy.

“We were just trying to raise money for the kids,” Hughes said.

Overall the BCM raised more than $800 for the kids to attend Seeker Camp.
