The ZONE: Mad Libs 2
On May 7th, students at The ZONE wrote and recorded their second Mad Lib, this one about a curious dog. Their favorite exclamation: “OMG!”
The ZONE: Audio Mad Lib

The ZONE: Audio Editing
Students at The ZONE’s Radio Club got a chance to edit some of their own audio.

Needless to say, they loved making people sound like Sloth from “The Goonies.”

Our third and fourth meetings of The ZONE’s 2nd semester Radio Club focused on communities, the issues prevalent within them and the ways in which we can help change them for the better.
