Volunteer Spotlight -

Jonathan Fay

Jonathan started with the Waycross Family in middle school when he and a friend heard an announcement for the Video Club and decided to check it out. He liked it and stuck with it through high school. He gained experience with Audio, Editing, Camera, and Directing.
Jonathan says his best experience was shooting from the Skybox for St. X Football.

After graduating from Finneytown High School he attended Miami U. then moved to Cincinnati State where he is still taking business classes. He is currently the full-time Manager at Yottaquest,  a hobby game store in Mt. Healthy.
Jonathan and another Waycross Alumni, Tony Hardwick still dabble in video production from time to time and love it.

Asked what he got from his years at Waycross he said “I learned a lot of life skills to help me in the workplace. I learned team building, to follow directions precisely,  creative thinking,  and working under pressure!”
