Eighth grade and sophomore students attended College and Career Day at Edmonson County High School today, hosted by Edmonson County Youth Service Centers.

Several businesses and educational institutions from around the region set up booths in the gym to help give students a better look at what opportunities might be out there for them.

Among some of the booths were Bank of Edmonson County, Alford's Pharmacy, Edmonson EMS, Bowling Green Fire Department, Kentucky Fish and Wildlife, WKU, The Corvette Museum, The Edmonson Voice, and many others.

A Camping World representative discusses career opportunities with their company.

Most booths offered promotional giveaways and candy to the students along with demonstrations or info from each organization. 

Several students stopped by the Edmonson Voice's booth to view a slideshow of photos published on our site in 2017. 

The EC FRYSC hosts the event each year.
