Our First Career Workshop............6-16-09

Red Letter Day......................we finished "OUR FIRST CAREER WORKSHOP"...........this is a four hour workshop that helps prepare people for employment and gives lots of practice skills in job related areas................We had 9 people come............Richard Whitewater (neat man) from Many Farms, Phillip Notah (we asked him about his name and he said his great-grandfather went someplace where they were speaking English where they asked him a question and he answered "No Talk" - they thought he said Notah and wrote it that way - he liked it and kept that for his name.....................Lynda Yazzie, Margaret Yazzie, Ed, Kimberly Yazza, others..............fun day. We saw such improvement isn their skills by the end of the day.............Kimberly Yazza was a young girl who had just received her certification as a diesel mechanic...............We always serve lunch after the workshop (Subway sandwiches)...........We were relieved and LOVED doing the workshop. We do those once a month on the 3rd Tuesday............
