Graphic Arts students work with RSVP
In April, eight students in North Montco Technical Career Center's Graphic Arts class competed to create the new logo to be used by RSVP of Montgomery County for their upcoming 5K Run & 1 Mile Walk which will be held at the Elmwood Park Zoo on October 3, 2010.
Students submitted designs depicting wild animals in action. Submissions were made by students Miranda, Ian, Emma, Tiffani, Andrew, Christine, Kirsten and Theresa. The winner, Theresa, submitted a running lion design, inspired by her trips to the zoo. RSVP will use the logo to promote the 5K on tee shirts, signage and brochures.
The 5K theme is Run Wild. The run and walk course will meander through the Elmwood Park Zoo offering participants a chance to visit with their wild friends. All proceeds from this event will benefit RSVP's Children's Literacy programs.

Master Chef Joseph Poon’s visit to Culinary Arts class
Culinary Arts students were thrilled to receive a visit by Master Chef Joseph Poon last week. He is known for the Asian Fusion restaurants he has owned in Philadelphia, his Wok ‘N Walk Tours of Philadelphia’s Chinatown, hands-on cooking classes, vegetable and fruit sculptures and autobiographical cookbook, Life is Short...Cooking is Fun!
Chef Poon treated first session students to a fabulous carving demonstration using various fruits and vegetables. Some of the shapes he carved include a rose out of a potato, a sea horse and dragon out of watermelon, and a palm tree out of a carrot and a pepper. He even selected some students to participate in the demonstration with him. During the second session, Chef Poon demonstrated how to “Make 7 Dishes from one Chicken” for the students.
Throughout his demonstrations, Chef Poon stressed the need to practice. He told the students they need to make their mistakes now so they can learn from these mistakes. He reminded the students they need to work hard to achieve their goals and stressed the importance of community service. Chef Poon currently performs between 500 and 1000 hours of community service each year. He feels it is important to give back to the community.
