By Emilie Hackett, Special to the Record – Townshippers’ Association held a career day, Unlock Your Future: Discover Opportunities in the Eastern Townships at Alexander Galt Regional High School on Wednesday.
Level four and five students were treated to a half day of networking, workshops, panels, and speeches by keynote speakers. Galt graduates Erica Porter, athletic therapist and Director of Athletics at Champlain College, and Tim Brink, singer-songwriter and La Voix contestant, inaugurated the event with inspiring presentations that pushed the students to follow their dreams and never give up. According to Brink, the three keys for success are to “Show up, believe in yourself, and work hard to get there.” What started off as a one-time grant from Patrimoine Canadian Heritage, which allowed for career days at Richmond, Massey Vanier, and Alexander Galt in 2017 quickly became a key event at the Eastern Townships School Board (ETSB).
