Additional Information

Want to have some fun while learning about the many opportunities offered at your local community college? Make plans to attend Community Day at Cumberland County College on Saturday, April 28 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The event will take place rain or shine.  Community Day will provide a fun and family-friendly setting for residents to discuss their future goals with faculty, staff and students. This is particularly helpful for those who are apprehensive about beginning or returning to college.  College representatives will be on hand to discuss various educational opportunities that are available at Cumberland County College, such as School Counts! tuition scholarships, the “Return to Learn” program, and how to earn a bachelor’s or master’s degree at the on-campus Shirlee and Bernard Brown University Center.  The first 200 people to RSVP and attend the event will be entered to win a prize. To register, visit the college’s Web site at www.cccnj.edu/communityday

There will be many things to see and do on the campus. Participants in the CCC Alumni Association 5K Run and Campus Walk will begin crossing the finish line and the top finishers will be announced during an awards ceremony set to take place at the Trustees Fountain at 10:30 a.m.

Some of the activities that are scheduled include a CSI DNA lab, rocket launching competition, health screenings, free chair massages, fantasy face painting, and cooking demo with Chef Jeff. CCC’s agriculture department will offer a spring bedding plant sale, and the Clay College will show you how to make pinch-pots and tiles. And there will be live music, art gallery displays and theater games.
