This summer, the automotive program at Lakes Region Community College teamed up with Girls Inc. of New Hampshire's Young Women in Leadership program to show rising 7th–9th graders what an automotive career can look like.

Under Kim Stevenson, the only female post-secondary automotive instructor in the state, campers rotated through hands-on stations: changing tires, checking tread and pressure, identifying parts under the hood, and swapping wipers & filters. The New Hampshire State Police ran a seatbelt relay challenge. From there, campers took on leadership roles, helping lead activity stations for younger participants at McGovern Toyota of Concord, exploring the sales side of the industry. A lot of new skills. And a much greater sense of what's possible.

At Lakes Region Community College, honoring service means showing up.

Last November, LRCC President Patrick Cate launched BRAVO — Building Relationships and Veteran Outreach — to strengthen the college's bond with NH's veteran community. Since then, students, faculty & staff have been volunteering at the NH Veterans Home.

They've shared coffee and handwritten thank-you cards with residents. They've painted side by side in the art studio. They've planted vegetables in the garden and swapped stories along the way.

It's a simple idea. Spend real time with the people who served, and build something lasting on both sides. We're proud of the work happening at LRCC.

LRCC's BRAVO initiative celebrates the service of New Hampshire’s veterans while building lasting bonds with our Veteran community.
