HOLLYWOOD — A career fair brought booths from the Environmental Resources Department to Human Resources to Tribal Community Development. With about 30 exhibitors, some colleges or education-related, students, community members and tribal employees filtered around the Howard Tiger Recreation Center on the Hollywood Reservation on April 23.

Firefighters taught students how to do CPR and handed out kiddie firefighter hats. The Environmental Resources Department had a demonstration of how water can be naturally filtered. Many booths had handouts and opportunities to spin a wheel for a prize.

There was a raffle near the end of the fair. The fair was organized by the Education Department.
