The Automotive Club brings awareness to the many areas of the automotive industry, and supplements information in areas of the automotive industry that our curriculum does not cover. In the club, we bring experience and knowledge to students interested in the automotive field by being an active part of the local automotive community, taking tours of automotive related businesses and facilities, attending automotive events, hosting training opportunities, and building relationships within the automotive industry. The club meets once a month and has two meeting times so both full-time and part-time students have the ability to be involved.
