The Christian County high school entrepreneurship program called "C-E-O" held their students orientation meeting last night at Charro Mexican Restaurant in Taylorville.

21 students, their parents, and Christian County C-E-O officials, reviewed what the vision, mission and history of the program is, and what the expectations are of the students.

C-E-O board president Bill Beyers told Regional Radio News the orientation meeting helps incoming students know why the program does what it does.

Christian County C-E-O facilitator Neil Hohenstein is starting his 3rd year at the helm and told Regional Radio News he's looking forward to this year with some 21 students, the largest class ever.

Adam Vocks and Billy Williams, former owners of Computer Techniques in Taylorville, announced they've formed a Foundation called the Vowi (VOH-wee) Foundation with its goal of making local C-E-O students local entrepreneurs after completing 2 years at a community college.   Vocks further explained why the pair decided to offer the C-E-O students this opportunity.
