MV hosted its Military and Service Career Appreciation Day today. It was a great success as the students got to interact w/all the service organizations on-site to explore the careers that each have, as well as getting hands-on with each piece of equipment to learn more about those job's functions. The students got to have 'bucket' rides w/Evergy as well as climb all over the equipment that was on-site (to include the CH47 Chinook helicopter!). MV wants to thank all of the organizations that made this event the success that it was.
