Greater Lynchburg, New River Valley, Roanoke Valley, and
Alleghany Highlands. This two (2) day event will have an
estimated 5,000 students attend Career Quest to visit with
businesses and interact with hands-on experiences to further
drive them toward careers that matter in our areas.

This event is being modeled after the
United Way of Southwest Virginia’s Career Expo.
