Cte Expo 12

May 18

Chamber Golf Tournament 11

Each year, the Spanish Fork Salem Area Chamber of Commerce joins with the Spanish Fork Rotary Club to sponsor a scholarship golf tournament at The Oaks at Spanish Fork golf course. Money raised through the tournament funds college scholarships for students at local high schools. Students interested in applying to be considered for one of these scholarships should contact their school counselor. For more information visit the chamber’s website.

The annual Utah Valley CTE (Career and Technical Education) Expo began as a competition between local welding students, but it has grown into a much bigger event and is open to the public at no charge. The idea was implemented by former Spanish Fork High School welding teacher Shaun Black, who wanted to provide an event that allowed his welding students to use their class projects to compete head-to-head with other students. Other Nebo School District high schools joined the excitement, and in 2015 the CTE Expo was offered to all high schools statewide. The event features drift trike races, fabrication judging and other events throughout the day as well as exhibits of other CTE-related professions such as aviation, automotive repair, agriculture and wood crafting to help inform students about possible career pathways. The CTE Expo is held at the Spanish Fork Fairgrounds.
