Members of the Cameron Volunteer Fire Department explain how the organization serves the community and benefits the students could earn by becoming a first responder.
The 10th annual Cameron High School College & Career Fair took place Tuesday in the school’s gymnasium.
There were 40 vendors at the event including representatives from colleges and universities, the Military, trades, businesses and community outreach programs. Several post-secondary institutions were represented such as West Liberty University, West Virginia Northern Community College, Wheeling University and the WVU Medicine-BM Spurr School of Practical Nursing.
Students, in ninth through twelfth grade, and community members had the opportunity to learn about the different colleges and career opportunities. They were even able to request information from the college of their choice as well as apply for employment. A few businesses were hiring on the spot.
The Cameron High School College & Career Fair is held once a year and is organized by CHS Counselor Kelly Pettit.
