A busy weekend at EVIT

It may be Friday, but EVIT students and staff aren't winding down for the week -- they're ramping up for several weekend events.

Automotive technology students will be on campus bright and early Saturday for a FREE community Car Clinic. From 8 a.m to noon, students will conduct basic maintenance inspections, checking things like brakes, fluids and tires. Actual service will not be performed that day, but drivers can make an appointment to come back if any issues are discovered uring the inspection.


Meanwhile, fashion merchandising students will spend their Saturday running a yard sale to raise money for a class trip to California. The sale will be held from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 212 W. Verano Place in Gilbert.


And then at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday night, health students are hosting a comedy hypnosis show to raise money for Autism Speaks. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door. To purchase tickets, call (480) 461-4001.
