Student speakers included Ruth Shannon from Salem, who completed home health aide training and starts at Clatsop Community College in the fall, and Maggie Moss, a student am- bassador to Washington, D.C., featured in The Daily Astorian who completed her medical as- sisting training and now works for Columbia Memorial Hospi- tal. “The education, skills and training that young adults re- ceive from the Tongue Point Job Corps helps to provide a strong foundation for the fu- ture,” said a statement by U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., rep- resented by staffer Johnell Bell at the graduation. “The Job Corps program has been nur- turing young adults and training students for employment for 50 years and the program has impacted countless individu- als here in Oregon. We need to support programs like the Jobs Corps that help train and edu- cate students and help set a sol- id foundation for their future.” “Most great discoveries are made because someone has an open mind, because someone kept plugging away at an idea,” Mike Riley, deputy director of Tongue Point Job Corps Center, said to the graduates. “So learn from your mistakes and keep trying. How you face these dis- appointments is what will make a man or a woman out of you.” ® ACCUWEATHER FORECAST FOR ASTORIA Astoria 5-Day Forecast Tonight Oregon Weather Shown is tomorrow’s weather.
