   “This is a great opportunity for the community to come out to South Georgia Technical College and enjoy the car show and also take a tour of the SGTC Aviation Maintenance Department,” said SGTC President Dr. John Watford.

   SGTC admissions officials will be on hand at both events and prospective students and their parents who are interested in a tour of the campus are also welcome to attend.  SGTC offers over 200 associate degree, diploma, and technical certificate of credit programs as well as the “complete college experience” with on-campus housing and nationally ranked academics, student activities, and intercollegiate athletics.
