Last Thursday, March 19th, Dr. Crystal Rhine, Stephanie Howell, and Chrissy Barnhart took some of our animals to the annual Expanding your Horizons event held at Mid Plains Community College in North Platte NE. This is the 5th year in a row we have attended.
This event is held for Junior High Students from around the area, so they can explore different career paths.
Our title was, From Nose to Tail: What it takes to care for animals. We talked about different job opportunities and career paths in the Vet Med profession.
We also talked about NCTA and what we teach here at the college. Most importantly, we took some of our animal ambassadors, and let them do the talking.
It was a fun and great way to spread the word of what we do and who we are!
