✨ Saturday Spotlight! ✨
It’s time to meet another amazing member of the Adams County CEO Class of 2026! 🌟

Hi, my name is Ben Schelp, and I'm a senior at Quincy Senior High School. My favorite hobbies are playing football, going to the gym, watching Formula 1, and spending time with my friends. The reasons I joined the CEO program are to learn from the best entrepreneurs in Adams County, learn how to network, and build the skills needed to create a successful business. In my career, I plan on being involved in the finance world and eventually opening my own practice once I figure out what I enjoy the most. Being in the CEO program will undoubtedly allow me to build the skills needed to succeed in my career.
