20
00:00:56.640 --> 00:00:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Now, how do we get involved with this?

21
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 2>So you can go to Try County TechEd slash Golf

<v Speaker 1>be lovely out there.

28
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:17.879
<v Speaker 2>Now.

29
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Tell us a little bit about this. It goes to

30
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:21.519
<v Speaker 1>the foundation, right, All.

31
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.079
<v Speaker 2>The proceeds benefit the Tri County Tech Foundation and goes

32
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 2>towards tuition, emergency eight and food assistance. And this will

33
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:30.480
<v Speaker 2>be our third year. Last year we raised close to

34
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:32.840
<v Speaker 2>thirty five thousand. I think it was thirty four thy

35
00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:38.040
<v Speaker 2>five hundred, So this is our biggest fundraiser and so yeah,

36
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.159
<v Speaker 2>we're looking forward to doing it again this year, and

37
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.280
<v Speaker 2>of course accepting sponsors and teams.

38
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:45.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah. So if you've got a business or service,

39
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.239
<v Speaker 1>or if you just want to just do something very

40
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:51.719
<v Speaker 1>kind and now the goodness of your heart, you can

41
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:54.799
<v Speaker 1>be a sponsor, the whole sponsor, whatever kind of sponsorship

42
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:57.640
<v Speaker 1>you need. I imagine we can find that on the website,

43
00:01:57.719 --> 00:01:58.120
<v Speaker 1>can we not.

44
00:01:58.359 --> 00:02:01.840
<v Speaker 2>That's right, it's Try County Tech EEDU slash golf and

45
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:04.079
<v Speaker 2>I always say that golfing is done, but when you

46
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:07.120
<v Speaker 2>do it for a good cause, it's even more fun.

47
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.479
<v Speaker 1>Now try County Tech is a great school. I can

48
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:16.759
<v Speaker 1>vouch for this. My youngest just graduated this spring wengratulationship

49
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 1>and she said that was just the ball. She didn't

50
00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>really know. I went to expect it, but she kind

51
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:24.800
<v Speaker 1>of bragged a little bit. Because I only go to

52
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:26.680
<v Speaker 1>school for a half day, then I go try County

53
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:28.719
<v Speaker 1>Tech for the other half. It's really cool. I get

54
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:30.000
<v Speaker 1>to hang out with the cool kids.

55
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.719
<v Speaker 2>We hear that all the time. I think we treat

56
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:35.560
<v Speaker 2>our students like adults, and they really love that about

57
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:36.360
<v Speaker 2>Career Tech.

58
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:41.360
<v Speaker 1>That's what she said. You're treated a much different and

59
00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 1>you feel like you're coming into your profession, You're coming

60
00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:49.319
<v Speaker 1>into your calling when you take the classes out there.

61
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.560
<v Speaker 2>That's right. And we've had a few sponsors already stuff

62
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:54.599
<v Speaker 2>up for our tournaments, so I want to let's do that,

63
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:57.560
<v Speaker 2>make sure and mention them. I know that Trudy Credit

64
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Union is one our best wealth management conco Phillips and

65
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:04.680
<v Speaker 2>blue Peak Fiber Internet, so nice want to give them

66
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:07.319
<v Speaker 2>a shout out, but let you know that we're still

67
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:08.400
<v Speaker 2>looking for sponsors.

68
00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:11.199
<v Speaker 1>Now. Your foundation does a lot of great work. You

69
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:14.439
<v Speaker 1>even have some endowments that have been really working well,

70
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>not only up for the students, but for the school.

71
00:03:17.199 --> 00:03:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Correct. So the endowments are similar to the one that

72
00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned earlier for the Charlie and Juley Daniels Scholarship.

73
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:24.400
<v Speaker 2>But what we do is take the money that they

74
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:26.280
<v Speaker 2>give us and put it in an endowment fund and

75
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:28.319
<v Speaker 2>then we just draw interest off of that annually and

76
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:32.080
<v Speaker 2>use those for scholarships, so that money will live in perpetuity.

77
00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:35.039
<v Speaker 2>It will go on forever, long after I'm here, and

78
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:38.240
<v Speaker 2>as long as the school's around and still providing education.

79
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:40.479
<v Speaker 2>Your money will be used for scholarships. So it's a

80
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:44.319
<v Speaker 2>really great way for us to invest our donor dollars.

81
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:47.639
<v Speaker 1>One thing I love about Drake County Tech is the adaptability,

82
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.919
<v Speaker 1>whether it's pairing up the right classes for the right

83
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:54.319
<v Speaker 1>students or the right students for the right classes, and

84
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.319
<v Speaker 1>changing with the times. And one thing that's rock solid

85
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>is that it's a rare if anybody carrying a debt

86
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:02.919
<v Speaker 1>out of graduation.

87
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:06.400
<v Speaker 2>That's what the foundation is for, is to try and

88
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:10.719
<v Speaker 2>provide an opportunity for any student to succeed and to

89
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 2>leave debt free.

90
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that doesn't happen in too many places in this

91
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>world anymore.

92
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:18.800
<v Speaker 2>No, it sure doesn't. And I also want to mention

93
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 2>you mentioned the right students for the right program and

94
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:22.800
<v Speaker 2>the right program for the right students. But we also

95
00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:26.759
<v Speaker 2>work with businesses for customized training, so that that does

96
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>make us very adaptable. We're always talking to business and

97
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:31.920
<v Speaker 2>industry to see what they need from us and to

98
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:34.279
<v Speaker 2>make sure that our students are prepared or even their

99
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:37.759
<v Speaker 2>employees are trained, maybe even on the job.

100
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Wow. You know, it's matchmaking and its finest when it

101
00:04:41.160 --> 00:04:46.360
<v Speaker 1>comes to careers and potential employees. And these students to

102
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.360
<v Speaker 1>get a kick out of this because one their interest

103
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:52.199
<v Speaker 1>and they're they're following their interests, they're following what they

104
00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:55.319
<v Speaker 1>call their calling, and then they're matched up pretty darn

105
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:58.040
<v Speaker 1>well with what's going on around And we've got so

106
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:01.439
<v Speaker 1>many new employers coming into town. To imagine you're already

107
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:02.560
<v Speaker 1>had a few conversations.

108
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.279
<v Speaker 2>We're meeting with everybody that comes to town to see

109
00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:08.399
<v Speaker 2>how we can serve them missed and same with our students.

110
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:10.920
<v Speaker 2>I think that's why they're successful, is because they're working

111
00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:13.720
<v Speaker 2>in their strengths and following their passions.

112
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:16.639
<v Speaker 1>Now, the golf tournament coming up into October, it's going

113
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:18.519
<v Speaker 1>to be a lot of fun it's the third and

114
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I remember when we did the first. Yes, it's like, oh,

115
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:23.560
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna have fun. We're going to do this when

116
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.439
<v Speaker 1>by value it was a success, that's right, and then

117
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:29.439
<v Speaker 1>even more success. And this third time, I just imagine

118
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:31.279
<v Speaker 1>you're going to hit it out of the park. It's

119
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>become a thing.

120
00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Now. Yes, I'm trying to think real quickly of a

121
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:39.040
<v Speaker 2>golf analogy instead of a baseball analogy. But yes, I'm

122
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:41.040
<v Speaker 2>hoping that it's going to be very successful, and I

123
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:42.800
<v Speaker 2>expect that it will be. We always have a lot

124
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:43.160
<v Speaker 2>of fun.

125
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:45.720
<v Speaker 1>And how many people do you slide?

126
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, do you accept twenty two teams? Which would

127
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:52.560
<v Speaker 2>be eighty eight people right, because it's a four person scramble.

128
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Those are fun. Yeah, those are really fun because not

129
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>only for the foundation, but for the people who participate,

130
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:02.720
<v Speaker 1>because they just have a ball out there.

131
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:05.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and we love that it's at the club. It's

132
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:07.800
<v Speaker 2>just you know, we don't have any gimmick holes or

133
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:11.480
<v Speaker 2>any you know, buy ins. Everything is included and whenever

134
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:14.519
<v Speaker 2>you register, so you get a whole sign and all

135
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:16.480
<v Speaker 2>your mulligans and you just come out and have a

136
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:19.000
<v Speaker 2>really good time and play really good golf.

137
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>So there you go.

138
00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Makes us unique?

139
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:23.160
<v Speaker 1>It does, it does, and of course it goes to

140
00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>the foundation. Now, the school's been around for a while,

141
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.360
<v Speaker 1>started out basically with nursing, and then it started expanding

142
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:33.959
<v Speaker 1>and expanding and expanding and expanding, and I see that

143
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:36.759
<v Speaker 1>growth to continue in the years to come. Well, one

144
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:41.000
<v Speaker 1>thing that folks will often see when they go out there,

145
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.639
<v Speaker 1>they said, wow, that's a nice building. Then when you

146
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:47.360
<v Speaker 1>get inside, you're wondering, I'm just get so big. It

147
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:50.720
<v Speaker 1>looks bigger inside than it does outside. What you guys

148
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:52.199
<v Speaker 1>do with your space is incredible.

149
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:55.959
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we're always trying to improve and stay ahead of

150
00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:59.040
<v Speaker 2>technology and make sure that we have everything that our

151
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:02.040
<v Speaker 2>students need to Now, let's talk.

152
00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:05.480

160
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:29.759
<v Speaker 2>classrooms because you really understand that it's hands on training.

<v Speaker 2>You know, it's not textbook learning. We're not virtual, we're

168
00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:54.319

169
00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:56.759
<v Speaker 1>a whole lot of turnover out there. You're going to

170
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:59.279
<v Speaker 1>see familiar faces because people have an entity just that

171
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:02.759
<v Speaker 1>just to be there a long time, because they're engaged

172
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.199
<v Speaker 1>not with the students, but also with the way that

173
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:08.879
<v Speaker 1>the school operates. Malcolm Balbridge Award is one that you

174
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:09.680
<v Speaker 1>guys kind of own.
