Several
thousand veterans are returning to Minnesota over the coming weeks. The pictures and stories of reunited loved shared
by our local media has touched all of us. CLC now has an opportunity to give
back to our veterans. On Wednesday, June 13, from 4 - 7 p.m., CLC will be
hosting a Celebrate Veterans Career Exploration event at our Brainerd
campus. The event is one of many being planned by the Brainerd Lakes Community
to help veterans
and their families through this
time of transition and will provide planning and support that will lead to jobs
for vets.
All
veterans and their families in the seven county surrounding
region will be invited to attend the career exploration event. The event is
expected to draw several thousand veterans and will provide an opportunity for
them to explore career options while interacting with area businesses, service
providers, and CLC instructors and staff. This is an unprecedented opportunity
for CLC to showcase our offerings. It is also an excellent way for us to give
back to our communities and our veterans. Those
veterans
wishing to pursue educational options will have an opportunity to speak with
admissions staff and enroll at CLC during EZ Enrollment on Thursday, June
28.
At
the mid-point of the Career Expo a "Celebration of
Veterans" will take place in the Chalberg Theatre. The
celebration will be led by our college veterans, military leadership, and
congressional representatives. During the celebration CLC student
veterans will thank all our veterans for their service to our
country.
