Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, Ore. Wednesday, June 4, 2014 Page A-5 LBMS hosts career day for students By Jenna Larkin IVN Contributing Writer Several hundred Lorna Byrne Middle School students participated in a Career Day last week. Stephanie Hennings and LBMS Princi- pal Rachel George organized the event. With countless hours spent getting the event in order, many local businesses were contacted in the hopes that they would be able to partici- pate. In the end, 13 businesses responded and attendees included a juvenile probation officer, a park ranger, wildland firefighters from the U.S. Forest Service, a representative from the Pacific Veterinarian Clinic, a member of the Dutch Bros. team and a therapist. In addition, representatives from Country Plumbing, I.V. Fire, KLDR, an auto mechanic, Dr. Nordal, AMR and the Three Rivers School District also attended. “It teaches students what it takes to get into certain fields, college if needed and how many years,” Hennings said. “It also lets them look at different careers that students may not know are out there.” Career Day has been provided for many years for the students of Lorna Byrne but disappeared for a couple of years. With the realization of the impact that the event had on students, it was brought back last year. Each student is allowed to go through the list of businesses and choose four booths to attend. From there, Mrs. Hennings painstakingly made sure that each booth had enough student inter- est for the event. The I.V. Fire Department showed stu- dents some of the equipment that is used while on a fire or a rescue and where it can be located on a fire engine. “We were mainly talking students into becoming firefighters and emergency respond- ers,” joked Robert Sitton, a lieutenant with the fire department. Actually, the main purpose of the fire department was to convince students that 6WDUWLQJRU*URZLQJD%XVLQHVVLQ,OOLQRLV9DOOH\" 1HHGPRQH\" 0LFUR%XVLQHVV/RDQ)XQGLQJ$OZD\V$YDLODEOH 6WDUWXSH[LVWLQJKRPHEDVHGRURWKHU EXVLQHVVHQWHUSULVHV PLQLPXP WR PD[LPXP $SSO\DWWKH,9&'2RIILFH&DYHV+Z\ 4XHVWLRQV"3KRQH 2 WEEK SPECIAL Puri Clean x2 Cleanse 0108 14 99 OFF $ Special Features L IMITED ! 1200 mg Omega 3.

S PACE technology that is needed for radio production; such as how different radio waves are sent and how they work. They went on to talk about the different equipment used in the studio, from how the music is played to what they have to announce that pops on a prompt screen. Redfield and Tom Ray emphasized how a person interested in going into radio does not necessarily have to have a higher education but reading, writing and a good personality are key to the job. Rain Redfield and Tom Ray feel lucky in the sense that they happen to love their job and don’t look at it as a job but a craft. “We just happen to really love what we do,” explained Tom Ray. The goal of the DJ’s was to be able to relate that enthusiasm to the kids, for them to be able to look forward to something that they love to do. “It was fun. I got to learn about the dif- ferent jobs,” Aubrey Janoski, a Lorna Byrne student said of the KLDR radio DJs. Janoski said that if she had to pick a career today, she would choose to be a radio DJ because she likes the radio and is a social person. Shelly Steiner and Steven Keen were on hand to talk about the careers available with U.S. Forest Service. Steiner and Keen talked about firefighting but also touched on other ca- reers that are available within the forest service such as wildlife biology, botany, etc. They also demonstrated what kind of equipment is used on the fire line, resources that are available and used during a wildland fire, what it takes to start a fire and what it takes to put a fire out. Keen and Steiner also went over fire preven- tion and explained that nine out of ten fires are started by humans. Overall, the students were very active and interested. With a few career options presented to the students of Lorna Byrne Middle School, their eyes have been opened to a few more ca- reer choices that they might not have thought were possible. tions. Frohnauer explained how the company came to be, what types of coffee beans are in their coffee blend and talked about how the company itself is expanding all across the United States. Currently Dutch Bros. has nearly 200 locations in seven states. At the end of his presentation Eli had a question-and-an- swer session for free drink cards. Mrs. Snook runs the after-school pro- gram at Lorna Byrne. Dutch Bros. donates free drink cards to the program in an effort to help students see the value of doing their homework and to be able to accomplish something, even if it is small. Mrs. Snook developed her own stamp-card system for students who are serious about their school work. Every student that attends an after-school academic homework help class receives one stamp on their stamp card. Once they fill their card (ten stamps) that student gets a free drink card. “We are trying to teach the students to be responsible about their school work and care about what grades they get,” Snook said. Rowdy Bates was one of many students that attended the Dutch Bros. presentation. He also went to the food service and DJ tables. Bates said that if he had to pick one of the three careers he would choose Dutch Bros. “The barista seemed the most interest- ing,” said Bates. He also learned about food service, most- ly about how the USDA regulates the food that schools are now required to serve. “Originally it started with farmers having too much leftover produce, the government would buy extra produce and give it to the schools to use,” explained Bates. Although he sees the food in a different way in the school cafeteria, the food is still bland tasting to Bates. One of the favorite booths was the radio station, KLDR. Radio personalities Rain Redfield and Tom Ray were on hand to explain to students the various aspects of being an an- nouncer, how a radio station works, advertising and even the different contests. Rain Redfield and Tom Ray also explained the different they need to stay in school and choose classes wisely for whatever profession they eventu- ally decide to study for, such as fire science. Lieutenant Sitton also had a secondary mission and that was to promote a new program that has been in the making for a couple of years, but was just put in place earlier this year. The program is called Explorer Post. It is a fire and emergency service career exploring program that teaches young men and women the ins and outs of what is needed to get into the fields of fire and emergency services. The program is set for young men and women starting at the age of 14 (who have completed the eighth grade) to 20. Students had the chance to go behind the scenes of the school’s kitchen and experience what goes into cooking. Michael Morris is the food service director for Three Rivers School District. He did demonstration of cooking chicken teriyaki stir-fried rice. He showed how to make it and then served it to the students to form their own opinion. “I liked how they showed us how they make the food and what goes in it,” said Au- rora Breedlove, referring to the demonstration. Morris got his love of food and cooking at an early age. His father owned a restaurant while Morris was growing up. “It takes all different kinds of people to do all different kinds of jobs in the world,” Morris said. “Cooking is not such a bad thing to do.” Gabe Milner, a student a LBMS liked the food the best about the food demo and how Morris described everything and where he worked and what he does. The demonstration perked Milner’s interest in food a little bit. He is looking towards becoming a doctor or a chief in the future. Eli Frohnauer was at Career Day rep- resenting the Cave Junction branch of Dutch Bros. Frohnauer explained what Dutch Bros. is all about and what it’s like to be a barista and what Dutch Bros. does for local communities. Not only does Dutch Bros. believe in serving its communities the best coffee but they help local organizations as well with monthly dona- 6 $ 99 8 $ 99 ea. Reg. $7.99 ea . lb. Reg $9.99 lb.
