The new precision machinery partnership they&#8217;re working on will be a good return to the vocational programs that faded away in the past. It&#8217;s good to see that schools are finally realizing that skilled trades are important and that every student doesn&#8217;t need to go to college.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thumbs UP!<\/strong> to Julie Brown and all of the people that helped to put on the &#8220;Career Choice SOVA Youth Expo&#8221; on Wednesday &amp; Thursday. Five thousand (!) 7th &amp; 9th graders from as far away as Patrick County came to the expo. It was an awesome concept that took a lot of work from everyone, but they pulled it off perfectly.<\/li>\n<li>As a former GW drama student, I&#8217;ve got to give <strong>Thumbs UP!<\/strong> to Dana Tickle and the George Washington High School Theatre Guild. They&#8217;re putting on &#8220;Leading Ladies&#8221; this weekend at the GWHS auditorium. Gold diggers, men masquerading as women, mistaken identities, and a rich old lady who just won&#8217;t die rollick through this comedy. Tickets are just $5 so come and see tomorrow&#8217;s stars!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>UP! UP! and UP! Wow, whoda thunk that from a Friday Thumbs! column?
