Citrus Heights families and job seekers are invited to attend the city’s annual “Tools of the Trade” career and education fair, formerly known as the Public Works Showcase, on Thursday, May 14, from 2 to 5 p.m. at Van Maren Park. The event is free and designed for families, students, and those interested in a trade or technical career field.
Hosted by the City of Citrus Heights, the event seeks to give attendees the chance to get up close with the city’s heavy machinery and meet the operators who help keep local infrastructure running smoothly. Children and adults alike can enjoy hands-on demonstrations, interactive booths and giveaways.
This year’s event includes an education and career fair, featuring representatives from local employers, technical schools, and trade programs.
The city is also welcoming inquiries from potential vendors and sponsors who would like to participate. Interested organizations can reach out to the General Services Department at (916) 727-4770.
