The Johnson City Area Home Builders Association (JCAHBA) is hosting the fifth annual Eastman Credit Union Battle of the Build competition at Northeast State’s Technical Education Complex on April 23.
Ten area high schools will bring outdoor themed completed projects to be judged against one another. The event is free and open to the public from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. for viewing and asking questions of the student participants.
“At its core, Battle of the Build is a grassroots workforce development outreach of the Johnson City Area Home Builders Association that seeks to build connections between local students, teachers, employers and those who have made careers in manufacturing, trades, and supporting businesses,” said David Isaacs, Chairman of the Battle of the Build. “This year we’re getting even more students involved in the event. West Ridge High School Graphic Arts Department is printing the event t-shirts and the Culinary Arts Department is preparing and serving the awards banquet dinner.”
Because the competition will take place in the new Technical Education Complex, students and attendees will have the opportunity to tour the state-of-the-art building. Northeast State Community College recruiters will be at the event to answer any questions about enrolling in any of the programs offered at the TEC.
“We are excited to welcome high school students and community members to the Technical Education Complex for the Battle of the Build competition,” says Dr. Donna Farrell, Dean of Technologies, Northeast State Community College. “This is the perfect location to showcase student projects in a space that aligns everything from technology to trades to business education.”
Community members are invited to attend the event to view the student projects, select their favorite project for the popular vote award, purchase homemade items from students to support CTE programs, and tour the complex.
About JCAHBA: The association’s goal is to be a trusted resource for the community and an advocate for the building industry. The association provides educational programs to keep members up-to-date on the latest building practices and construction techniques and offers them the opportunity to network with the most knowledgeable and respected industry professionals in the country. As an affiliate of the Home Builders Association of Tennessee (HBAT) and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), JCAHBA takes full advantage of the support, resources benefits and programs they provide and encourages members to utilize the services offered to them exclusively by being members of the HBA.
