Epic Jobs planning committee announces cancellation of live event

To The Haldimand Press

HALDIMAND—Epic Jobs, an annual event that introduces almost 2,000 area students to the skilled trades, has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Running at two locations in Brantford – the Wayne Gretzky Sport Centre and the Sanderson Centre – Epic Jobs is in its fourth year. The event features high-profile industry speakers and around 50 exhibitor booths ranging from major local companies such as Tigercat, Brantford Power, and Stelco, to various community organizations, training centres, and colleges such as Six Nations Polytechnic and Conestoga College, who recently invested in its school of trades.
