“One of the advantages of being as old as I am is the ability to look
back 50 years and see the changes that have taken place. Nowhere
have these changes been more dramatic than in the “before and after” of
the Tongue Point Job Corps Center. What began in 1965, as what some
would remember as a somewhat misguided bureaucratic “experiment”,
the Tongue Point Job Corp has become one of the most respected so-
cial, educational and economic “PARTNERS” in the Lower Columbia
area. Looked upon as one of the leading Job Corp Centers in the entire
nation, OUR Tongue Point Job Corps makes me proud to be a strong 50
year supporter of the program.”
Skip Hauke, Executive Director
Astoria-Warrenton Chamber of Commerce
“I consider it a personal responsibility to help train future
carpenters in technical skills and instill values that will make them
good employees. Iʼm proud to partner with Tongue Point Job
Corps Center – as a carpenter, an employer and a taxpayer.”
Bill Teeple, Owner, BSG Construction
“As a local small business owner and Chair of the Clatsop County Board of County Commissioners, I would like to
congratulate the Tongue Point Job Corp Center on its fiftieth anniversary. I know from first-hand experience the impor-
tance of the center to our community and the country in developing young adults into successful employees and taxpay-
ers who will contribute to our economy and society. Over the years, I have employed many TPJCC graduates and they
have all been trainable, hard working, punctual and respectful of fellow employees and our customers. Clatsop County
values the TPJCC as an important local resource and we will work to ensure that the TPJCC will still be around for its
100th birthday.”
Scott Lee, Clatsop County Commissioner
Owner, Bikes and Beyond
