WASHINGTON, D.C. â Maroa-Forsyth High School graduate Molly Harris was a witness to history when she played a role in the inauguration of President Joe Biden on Jan. 20.
The Central Illinois native was selected to lead the recruitment, training and management of approximately 300 volunteers. On inauguration day, the volunteers did everything from directing traffic inside the Capitol building to escorting former presidents.
Harris, 27, had an inside view behind the events of the ceremony. âI saw everything you didnât see on TV and all that goes into a successful and momentous event,â she said. âThe event is perfectly choreographed down to the literal second.â
