​KCC's Wheels of Opportunity made its debut at the Illinois State Fair thanks to the help of our amazing staff and faculty!

Michelle Hasik and Alia Lockett-Faulkner took the RV to Springfield yesterday with giveaway items and hands-on experiences from our programs. Visitors were able to experience AR devices our health careers students use and learn more about our Ag/Hort program with seeds, pots, and potting soil. Lesley Cooper and her husband (and adjunct KCC professor) Ronnie took over for the evening and are bringing back the RV today. Thank you all for representing KCC at the state fair and helping make this possible!
