Career Day 2009, as a part of Connections Weekend 2009, is an opportunity for the Galion alumni to share their professional experiences with current Galion students.

The day's activities start bright and early at 8am with panel discussions involving students and Galion alumni. After a break for lunch, students will have the opportunity to network with alumni in 2-38 minute Career Sessions based on the student's interest.

We've currently have nearly 40 alumni confirmed to participate in Career Day 2009. Click Here to view a list of confirmed attendees and careers where alumni are still needed to participate.

Saturday night will see the first class inducted into the Galion High School Hall of Fame.  This Hall of Fame is to honor Galion graduates and Galion Educators who have made their marks after graduation.  Nominations are being received for this first class.  A formal Banquet will be held at the Galion Middle School to honor those notable graduates.

 

With this effort we hope to raise $50,000.00 to start the process of adding a wonderful Arts and Activity Center to the campus of the Galion City Schools.  We need you and your support to make this weekend a tremendous success.
