This was a community service project supervised by Cliff Thurston under the direction of Lloyd Williams, Region 9 building construction instructor.&amp;nbsp; Last spring Ron Russell, volunteer for the Rumford Information Booth, contacted Lloyd Williams, and communicated the needs of the organization. The project worked into the cabinet making unit of the curriculum. Ron Russell said the students did a beautiful job and he is very pleased with their work. The Rumford Information Booth opens for the season on April 5&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

			<description>&lt;p&gt;Region 9 staff members will be visiting all three of our high schools to present Region 9 program information to sophomores and juniors. &amp;nbsp;Our first scheduled presentation will be on Friday, February 26th at 10:20am at Telstar Regional High School. &amp;nbsp;Dates for Mountain Valley High School and Dirigo High School will follow.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In addition, the Student Services Coordinator will be available in the guidance office areas every two weeks at each high school. This is an opportunity for students and parents/guardians to meet with a Region 9 representative to discuss the application process or a specific Region 9 program.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Region 9 welcomes the opportunity to give tours of our facility to community members, families or interested students. Please call us at 364-3764 to schedule a tour!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
