WyoTech rep Tanner McDonald spoke to the Automotive class students last week. He not only caught the attention of a few students, but he also offered to be a part of our Rat Rod project.
Students and Mr. Harris have been designing some shirts, including Don's Machine as well as WyoTech. (Pictures are works in progress.)
Don's and WyoTech have offered to do some motor work for us.
We are still working out the details of how this will go, but the support from the community and beyond is amazing!
