Do you want to see Whatcom President Kathi Hiyane Brown and the cabinet members dancing with mascot Willie the Orca? Then head over to WCC Athletics Facebook page!
The video is part of a mascot competition with the Northwest Athletic Conference. The prize is $1000 and will go to a new costume for Willie. The contest consists of 5 weekly challenges, with a total 18 schools competing.
“The suit is 18 years old,” said Heidi Farani, Interim Director for Student Life and Development, who has been assisting students and Willie with the competition.
Featured in the video is Whatcom’s president dancing along with cabinet members and students, and of course Willie the Orca.
In order for Willie to win his new suit, students need to head over to the WCC Athletics Facebook page and “like” the video.
