Northland Pioneer College invites the public to enjoy the spring weather along with fun activities for the whole family during the college’s spring Eagle Fest on Friday, April 12, from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. The event will be held at the college’s Show Low campus.
Eagle Fest is free and is open to everyone. There will be entertainment for all ages, including live music by the local band Covered in Sun. The House Restaurant will serve complimentary food and beverages to the first 200 attendees and interactive booths and demonstrations will spotlight NPC programs, offerings, and student activities.
“Eagle Fest gives the public a chance to learn about what NPC has to offer,” explains Muriel Metcalf, an academic advisor, and staff lead for NPC’s student government association. “You’ll be able to meet with instructors and visit with students in many areas of study. We welcome you to experience the exciting learning environment we have here at NPC. You can also tour the new Skills Center and learn more about our partnerships with area high schools and local businesses.” NPC’s cosmetology department will be doing fun hair embellishments like colored extensions, glitter highlights, and spiked mohawks. Student clubs and organizations will also be at Eagle Fest, showcasing opportunities NPC students have for cultural and personal enrichment.
Parents and youngsters can also learn more about noncredit classes and NPC’s summer Kids College program.
