Today’s long drive gave our drivers valuable practice handling adverse conditions, navigating stoplights, passing in town vs. rural roads, not crowding plow trucks, and managing the unknown over blind hills. Great reps on quick stops, hazard lights, and horn use on our way back. Great practice at being alert!
Our Orientation students have been brushing up on their kitchen skills—learning proper peeling and cutting techniques. They put their new skills to the test and made homemade mashed potatoes from scratch! 🥣✨
Hands-on learning never tasted so good!
