One Stop Shop Crew sponsors LCC’s Battle of the Choirs

Jones County Resource Fair Victor Foster’s Employability Skills class has developed their own unique business plan for raising money for the upcoming Battle of the Choirs competition for Lenoir Community College.

Foster’s class has spent this semester focusing on business skills and knowledge necessary to start their own business.  The students had to research local business trends and decide on an industry to focus upon.  Automobile detailing was the starter business of choice and they named their proposed detailing company, “One Stop Shop.”  They are putting their knowledge to the test on Wednesday mornings at LCC in Trenton.

The students are washing and detailing automobiles and contributing the donations received to the LCC Foundation for Jones County scholarships.  After the students wash and clean the automobiles, they meet in class to evaluate their work and make recommendations for improvement or change for the following week’s class.

While the class is learning work ethic, communication skills, teamwork skills, and soft skills necessary to become successful in the business world, they are also participating in a service project and giving back to their community. 

The scholarship fund will benefit Jones County residents who choose to attend Lenoir Community College.  To learn more about this service project, employability skills classes, or the Battle of the Choirs, contact LCC Jones County Center Director Renee Sutton at 448-5021.
