Rotary Career Fair Summary. . . by Alan
Anderson
When
I graduated from Leadership Blair County in 1997 I was looking for an opportunity to
get involved in a community service organization that makes Blair County a better place to
live and work. That was the year I was inducted into the Altoona Rotary Club, and,
I’m happy to report that I’ve found what I was seeking.
The recent Career Fair is a
wonderful example of Rotary at work in our community. On March 17th, we hosted
approximately 650 students and their Guidance Counselors from eight area high schools at
the Jaffa Mosque for our 13th annual Rotary Career
Fair.
In addition,
we had over 100 members of our business and education community presenting information
about 90 different careers to those students. In short, the results were truly amazing.
Anyone who stopped by had to be impressed by the dedication of the presenters, and the
eagerness of the students to learn about possible career choices.
