NGU alumni Jim Smith went to Winter Jam several times and has fond memories of it.
“The atmosphere is very upbeat,” said Smith. “Winter Jam is geared towards youth, but it is still fun for college students and adults.”
“There’s something for everyone,” he added.
If you are looking for a great time filled with positivity and a Christ-centered message, head to the Bon Secours Wellness Arena this Saturday. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the show starts at 6:45 p.m. The event is very popular, so be sure to depart early so that you can find a parking place.
