Workshop participants learn how to put on ties by practicing on each other. They also learned how to dress for and be successful at a job interview, and how to write a resume. Workplace behavior skills are important for tomorrow's workforce.

Everyone showed off their best at the Saturday night formal dinner and dance, and practiced their dining and etiquette skills. A formal receiving line hosted by the naval station's commanding officer and corsages and boutoinnaires for every one made the night special.

Base commander Captain Nehms explains to the young people how much it takes to learn how to be a naval aviator.

    


Right: Captain Nehms helps 4-H'ers learn what it takes to fly by suiting some of them up and placing them in a plane and talks to the group.

 

All of the young people posed with Captain Nehms for a photograph by one of the helicopters used for training on the base.
