BOHLEN TECH. CENTER ONLY 

Walk through the aisles of any hardware store or home improvement superstore. Stop in to a recreation vehicle dealership. You’ll see an endless and ever-growing supply of outdoor power equipment and vehicles. And all that equipment will eventually need a little tweaking, a little maintenance and some repair work. Students will have the knowledge to function in an entry-level position as a technician, parts person or service writer with further career opportunities possible.
