Summer Fest

Thank you to our sponsors and the more than 700 supporters who came out to support Cascadia Technical Academy Foundation at our 2024 Summer Fest Cruise-In! This was a record-breaking event, as we raised funds to support Career and Technical Education at Cascadia Tech Academy. We welcomed our community into the classrooms to speak directly with our students about the unmatched training and support they receive at Cascadia Tech.

Over 220 classic cars were in attendance, along with Tony “Magic” Oberio performing his amazing magic act, and Waterfront Band performing on stage! Culinary, Baking & Pastry Arts students were once again in top form serving up a BBQ Lunch, and what many are saying is the Best Car Show lunch in the area. Along with showcasing some great classic cars, the theme of the event was focused on our programs and students, with our students awarding 20 Student Choice Trophies. Seven cars were named Best of Show!

Special Thanks to our Summer Fest Event Sponsors: Johnson Bixby, Integrated Tax Services, Daimler Trucks, BOB’S Paintland, Distinctive Landscape, ABM, Local Laborers 335, and International Graphics and Nameplates. Additional thanks to Kelly Porter for his help putting on the car show, our Criminal Justice students for their hard work managing our parking, and all the student and staff volunteers who helped with tours!
