There were almost forty different professionals who participated ranging from engineers to interpreters, and from
After the career fair, the class was treated to pizza and drinks sponsored by some of the local businesses. The Fort Bar generously allowed us to eat there so we would be off-site. Finally, the freshmen traveled to the Armory in Omaha and participated in team-building and leadership activities with representatives of the Nebraska National Guard. Special thanks to FCHS recruiter, Staff sergeant Liz Nielsen for coordinating that part of the day. The students really participated well and seemed to enjoy themselves. They were very attentive at the Career Fair and seemed to enjoy networking with the presenters.
