Concord University holds camp on journalism and media

Some people have to wait until their college years to learn how to be a journalist, but thanks to a partnership between GEAR UP Southern West Virginia and Concord University, some kids got to start their training a little earlier than usual. Concord is home to a journalism media camp that teaches middle school students how to shoot video, edit their footage, and even give interviews. Jessica Lilly, the organizer for the camp and communications manager for GEAR UP Southern West Virginia, says it also teaches leadership skills that can be used in other areas of life as well.
