Last Week's Program

A big "thank you" to our friend, Yvonne Fry, for her presentation of the Future Career Academy. This informative program provided our Club with insight into this valuable organization that helps bridge a path for many graduating high school seniors.

Since 2015, this organization has helped prepare and connect students to great employers in their community. In Plant City tradition, our local businesses (including many members of this Club) are key participants in this program. Several members shared their first-hand experience of their involvement with working with local students and introducing them to potential career paths.
