Classic Garage Sale

By Hayley Picard, Director of Communications and Marketing

Students in our Automotive Restoration Program braved the soggy weather on Saturday to host a garage sale in partnership with GT Craftsman Collision. From organizing and displaying items to practicing the art of negotiation, students gained valuable hands-on experience in communication, teamwork and business skills.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who stopped by and supported this initiative. All funds raised will support our Automotive Restoration Program, which is currently restoring a 1940 Ford Coupe to be donated to the Cowichan District Hospital Foundation pediatric unit—a project that blends craftsmanship, creativity and community giving.
