| The 3rd shop to visit was the welding where they can teach high pressure welding for the oil patch | |

 NO it is not a milking trough but a demonstration table so they can show the various water hook ups and actually put it to work with water running. |
| The 5th shop to visit was to the
Electrical Instrumentation Department {Possibly the only school of this sort in the province} |
|
 |
 |
| A
number of the courses are now being offer by the internet
to smaller
schools and this allows the teacher to handle more
students. It also helps the students as they can do some of the course from home or their local school and helps them cut down on their individual costs for the various courses. |
|
 The following weekend they were going to have a yard sale to sell off some of the items they no longer have need of. Not sure if anyone went back to buy. |
