The Technical College High School (TCHS) Pennock’s Bridge Campus is hosting its free, annual Community Day and 5K Tech Run on Saturday, April 30.
Community Day will run from 9 a.m. to noon and will feature campus tours, program demonstrations, free health screenings, games, crafts, food, raffles and a DJ, said a Chester County Intermediate Unit press release.
“Our annual Community Day is an opportunity to showcase TCHS Pennock’s Bridge to our community,” Brian Hughes, TCHS Pennock’s Bridge principal, said in the release. “It’s a really fun day for children and adults that gives them the chance to tour the school and participate in events and activities that our students take part in on a daily basis.”
Registration for the chip-timed 5K Tech Run is $22.10 in advance and $25 the day of the run. Registration for the 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk is $10. Proceeds of the event support student scholarships.
Additional activities will include classic car displays, face painting, haircuts for Locks of Love, nail art, pet micro-chipping, scavenger hunts, outdoor inflatables, crafts and video games, as well as free health and blood pressure screenings from local healthcare providers. There will also be raffle baskets full of great prizes, including a set of four One-Day Park Hopper tickets to a Disney theme park.
The Technical College High School is a joint venture of the Chester County Intermediate Unit (CCIU) and Delaware County Community College (DCCC). Its West Grove campus serves students residing in Avon Grove, Kennett Consolidated, Octorara Area, Oxford Area and the Unionville-Chadds Ford School Districts.
The most unique aspect of the school is that it offers dual-enrollment classes for high school students that blend career and technical programs with college courses. Students in dual-enrollment programs can graduate from high school with transferrable college credits or more.
