HOULTON, Maine — The Region Two Career/College Fair held last Friday, Oct. 14, 2016 was a huge success due to many contributing businesses, college representatives and armed services electing to come share their expertise with area students.
According to event organizers, having the fair at the Army National Guard building was well received by all.
There were 13 businesses from the northern part of Maine, three sections of armed services, and 14 post-secondary schools that attended. The five area high school juniors and seniors were able to have hands-on experiences with several presentations and engaged in one-on-one conversations with the representatives from each entity.
Students who asked questions, put their names in a drawing for gift cards for each sending school. It was a great day and the businesses and colleges were impressed with the level of conversations students had with them.
