Description (paste as-is):
The Final Lap marks the 6th and FINAL Annual Momma I Don’t Want to Go to College Skills & Trade Career Expo.
For six years, this movement has expanded access to skills, trades, and career pathways beyond the traditional four-year college route—while helping normalize an important conversation: college is not the only path to success.
This final annual expo represents a moment of intention—bringing the event chapter to a close while preparing to hand off the blueprint so this work can continue, grow, and be replicated beyond one organization.
🎟 General Admission (FREE) opens February 16, 2026
🏢 Vendor Registration opens February 16, 2026
This event is open to students, families, and community members exploring skilled trades, certifications, apprenticeships, and alternative career pathways.
This work was never meant to be temporary.
It was always too big to fail.
