Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now in its 12th<\/sup> year of operation, Camp Hard Hat<\/em> has grown from one hands-on career exploration camp for middle school students in Genesee County to now hosting 7 different Camp Hard Hat<\/em> camps across the GLOW and Monroe County region.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of Camp Hard Hat<\/em> is to introduce students to the skilled trades while helping to build a community project under the guidance and direction of Genesee Valley BOCES Building Trades instructors.  Several Camp Hard Hat<\/em> graduates have gone on to enroll in Career & Technical Education programming and are now in the construction industry – we know that Camp Hard Hat<\/em> works and directly feeds this high-growth, high-demand industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Camp Hard Hat<\/em> continues to grow, so do the supply needs.  For years, GVBOCES has generously allowed Camp Hard Hat<\/em> to use their tool trailer – now it is time for Camp Hard Hat<\/em> to raise the necessary funds to secure our own tool trailer and thus allowing Camp Hard Hat<\/em> to lead multiple camps at the same time…thereby DOUBLING our impact on local youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Saturday, May 30, the Batavia Rod & Gun Club in East Bethany will be hosting the Sporting Clays Shoot Benefiting Camp Hard Hat<\/em><\/strong>.  We are seeking individuals and teams to pre-register online (must be a minimum age of 12 years old and all participants MUST adhere to Batavia Rod & Gun Club Safety Rules) and we are also seeking event sponsors.  The event flyer and press release are attached to this email.  Online registration & payment is available at https:\/\/www.camphardhat.org\/sporting-clays-shoot-fundraiser<\/a>.  Proceeds from this event will go toward purchasing the tool trailer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
