The street rod technologies program will move from the Vermilion campus to just west of Lloydminster this fall, thanks to the private donation of three acres of industrial land with two large buildings. Almost 40 per cent larger than its current space, SRT’s new home features an office suite, enclosed classroom space, mezzanine viewing deck, three bays, and a 10-tonne overhead crane that spans the length of the shop. http://bit.ly/Lakelandgift
Film stills from the SRT shop
We took a few stills from some of the footage of the students working on their projects, filmed at the end of the 2015/16 semester. Needless to say the camera loved the Dodge Challenger.

Welding and fabrication
As we approach the end of the first semester we caught some highlights of our SRT students working on their welding and fabrication skills. The students are tasked with fabricating and assembling all the parts for a steel postal box. Next semester they will be taking their new skills to their project cars at the SRT shop.
