  1. Tennessee Technology Center at Elizabethton Supporting Our Community 2010 The National Technical Honor Society (NTHS), based in Flat Rock, N.C., awarded the NTHS student chapter at the Tennessee Technology Center at Elizabethton the 2011 NTHS Silver Star of Excellence Award for Community Service and the NTHS Silver Star of Excellence Award as an Outstanding Chapter.

  4. In our own backyard! • We as a group had been working on several avenues for a community project when the devastating flooding effected Nashville. It was no contest, this was our state, in our own backyard, this is our community! • The measure was voted on and unanimously passed for our project to be Nashville flood relief.

  5. Nashville’s Devastation

  6. Nashville’s Devastation • The Nashville Flooding, the Tennessee flooding and even the Grand Ole Opry flood pictures show mass destruction. Leaving nothing in its way, the quick waters whipped over the banks of the Cumberland River and through the streets and parking lots as well as building of the City of Nashville and areas surrounding. • Getting little coverage of the incident while it was happening, America is finding out now about this overwhelming devastation and offer to help. The people of Tennessee are a strong bunch but they could still used some help and lending a helping hand would be a great way to help our community,  the one we know as America.

  7. NTHS TTC Elizabethton/Mountain City RalliesOur Community! • We sponsored a school drive to collect items for the ongoing relief efforts of the flood victims. • The school collected hundreds of refillable water bottles, new blankets, sleeping bags, baby items and personal items. • Greenwood Baptist Church of Johnson City Vacation Bible school collected $300.00 to donate and provided the transportation!

  8. The Journey • Our President: Suzanne Vannoy, Historian: Mary Shearin and Member: Amanda Harvey along with Greenway Baptist member Gay Friday delivered items to the Salvation Army of Nashville during our summer break. • The items were received by Nashville area Commander Rob Vincent, Kristen Gillespie, and Matt Vamvas, Director of Volunteer Services
