The Community Career Fair is a free event, open to the public. Campbell is encouraging all members of the community to attend and hopes to make the Community Career Fair an annual event. “GBC is sponsoring the event, but the focus is for our entire community including residents of Humboldt, Pershing and Lander Counties. It is the first time coordinating this event locally and we’re hoping for a great turnout. ” For more information contact Heather McCoy, GBC Academic Advisor at 775-623-4824.
