In episode one of This Week in Waukesha, host Don Browne is joined by producer Max Martinson and special guest Gina Nordrum, family and consumer science teacher at Waukesha South High School and advisor to the Student Athlete Leadership Team (SALT). Gina takes listeners inside one of the school’s fastest-growing programs, highlighting how student athletes are giving back to the community through service, leadership development, and hands-on volunteer work. From supporting Blessings in a Backpack and the Christmas Clearinghouse to organizing fundraisers, leadership summits, and the annual Boots & Badges game, SALT students are learning what it means to lead on and off the field. The conversation also touches on mentoring younger students, summer service projects, and why empowering young leaders—especially at the high school level—matters now more than ever. Stick around for part two, where the discussion dives even deeper into SALT’s mission and impact in Waukesha.
