Who says Easter egg hunts are just for kids? Students, faculty and staff gathered on the plaza this Thursday to enjoy the third-annual EatBetter4Less egg hunt. The event was sponsored by the NTCC CARE Center, Peers Against Tobacco, Cox Logistics and the NTCC Social Work Club. More than 3,000 eggs were hidden, including golden eggs that were redeemable for special prizes ranging from gift cards to a free TV. 

The event also included free pizza and cupcakes and a live DJ (DJ Co...AKA Rico Willis). Many thanks to everyone who worked hard to put on this fun, interactive event!

Members of NTCC's PSI Beta Honor Society recently completed Basic Life Support (CPR) training. Russell VanBibber, Interim EMS Program Director at NTCC, provided the instruction. Participants included Skylar Hodson, Neida Perez, and Scott Polanosky. They successfully completed the cognitive and skills evaluations in accordance with the curriculum of the American Heart Association Basic Life Support (CPR and AED) Program. This is a great example of NTCC programs working together for a good cause! These students are now more prepared to help save a life.
