Pennsylvania Highlands Community College hosted a Workforce Solutions forum on Sept. 20 to familiarize people with the region’s network of work force development agencies and opportunities.
Mason McCarter is taking his love for restoring old vehicles and turning it into a career.
The 18-year-old is a self-taught upholsterer, working on automotive and marine vessels. He started his business â McCarterâs Hot Rod Stitchinâ â in hopes of making a living out of the skill.
âIt is one of them things around here we donât have too many. The ones who are here are getting older so I thought it would be a good thing to get into,â McCarter said.
âI bought a self-teaching course online to get the basics of it. I taught myself most of the rest of it.â
