The Boy with the Gun

June 13, 2013 By Ben Sclair

By Kurt Sample

Does anyone remember when Bill Cosby came to Lakewood? It was inspiring to hear him speak at the brand-new McGavick Center at Clover Park Technical College.

Equally inspiring was the testimony of Brandon Stogsdill who spoke to the youth about his journey from incarceration to education; from McNeil Island to Pierce College and beyond. Read more about Stogsdill at the Lakewood’s Promise website.
