Lambton College Goes Big for Fiftieth Anniversary, Powwow.

Troy Shantz, The Sarnia Journal.

Expect the 25^th annual Lambton College Pow Wow to pack a lot more “Wow” this year.

“When we realized that it would coincide with the 50th anniversary of Lambton College, and then of course the 150th anniversary of Canada, we thought this was the perfect time to really amp it up,” said Jane Manning, manager of aboriginal education at Lambton.

The Pow Wow is hosted by the Aboriginal Student Council and Aboriginal Cultural &Learning Centre as a way for students and the wider community to celebrate indigenous culture, crafts and food.

The event is expanding from the usual half day to three days, April 7 – 9, and moving to a larger venue at Clearwater Arena.

Day One will offer high school students a chance to learn more about native culture.

Her education includes a B.A., B.ED., M.ED., C.F.P., N.L.P. and the home inspector’s course as well as having her AZ license for five years. Her family home has given her and her husband the opportunity to do extensive renovation and repairs thereby increasing the value about $100,000 in ten years. She has been able to see firsthand how much a sensible and cost efficient renovations can add to the value of a home. Shirley has chosen joint ventures because she thinks that her experiences an help others achieve their goals and maximize the profits for both parties. In 1979, Shirley became involved in a small group of women who started a metal manufacturing company making small deep drawn metal parts for the automobile companies in Windsor. They took the company from start up to over $400,000 in sales in five years. That was a lot of parts since the parts sold for only five cents per each. In 1985 they sold the company to one of their customers. Whether it was selling mutual funds, teaching foster parents how to recruit foster parents, or working for Tony Robbins, Shirley has put more than 100 percent into every endeavour she was involved in.
