Manassas Chrysler & Manassas Dodge Donate Equipment To Osbourn Park High School Tech Program
Hats off to Manassas Chrysler and Manassas Dodge, Kia & Subaru for their recent equipment donations to Osbourn Park High School in Manassas, Virginia. The dealerships were quick to respond to a WANADA appeal for equipment to help expand the associationês technician training programs. Manassas Chrysler donated a front-end machine and other equipment, and Manassas Dodge, Kia & Subaru donated a tire balancer.
With the support of the Prince William County school system, the school is in the process of preparing a lab and building a classroom to offer technician training. WANADA is seeking both manufacturer and dealer support for the new training facility, which may be operational this fall.
However, the need still exists for several items to launch the program properly and to meet NATEF certification, said Dick Snyder of Jerryês Lincoln-Mercury who is chairman of WANADAês Auto Technician Training Task Force. We would greatly appreciate further tax deductible equipment donations from dealers.
Dealers interested in donating equipment, or who want more information, should contact Bill Belew at WANADA, (202) 237-7200, or e-mail: bb@wanada.org.
