📣 Spotlight on Tristan Stoelb – Our Tech Hero! 📣

We’re thrilled to recognize Family Health Center’s Director of Technology, Tristan Stoelb , for his incredible contributions to our fundraiser over the past two years!

From graphics and online support to equipment setup, Tristan has been a behind-the-scenes powerhouse. This year, he stepped up as our official videographer 🎥—and wow, did he deliver!

🤩 Tristan created stunning videos of each competitor’s routine, capturing unique angles and incredible detail. He compiled videos, photos, audio clips, and b-roll into professional-quality productions that our competitors absolutely loved. It was no small task, and Tristan nailed it!

Thank you, Tristan, for your creativity, dedication, and tech wizardry!
