Bay Path High Wins District's First Monthly Interact Video Contest - December 5, 2016
Bay Path High Wins District’s First Interact Video Contest

In the 81-second video, Bay Path Interactor Jamie Butkiewicz (shown, left) is wearing iconic Revolutionary War-era garb – the school’s mascot (as is District 7910’s) is the Minuteman. He comes across a student, played by Bay Path Interactor Fintan Neff (shown, right), sitting in the cold outdoors, hunched over, coatless and shivering. In true “service above self” fashion, Zachary runs gallantly through the school to a classroom storing Bay Path’s Coat Drive collection. He retrieves a winter jacket, dashes back to Fintan, and tenderly drapes it over his shoulders.
The goal of the Video Contest is to “create awareness about the local Rotary and Interact clubs.” The audience is “fellow members of your community.”
