Follow-up on the Ted Powe Scholarship Skate
The skating event went well. My wife and I even skated. The best news is that we did not even brake any bones. Although, we did fall a time or two. My boys already want to know when we can go skate again.
The event was created to benefit the Ted Powe Scholarship, which is a scholarship set up for the collision repair program. Carousel Skate Center said that they plan to hold two skates per year in memory of Ted. All money generated from admissions and raffles will be donated to the scholarship.
I would like to personally thank Carousel Skate Center for their support and contributions. Community support helps Butler produce the technicians of tomorrow.
Here is a short video of the skating event.

Collision Repair Tip
When masking, some soft moldings can be lifted by slipping a small rope between the molding and the surface to be painted. This will eliminate paint/clear from bridging to the molding.

Ted Powe Memorial Scholarship Skate
There will be a skating event Sunday, February 15, 2009 from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM at Carousel Skating Center in Wichita, KS. This event is in memory of Ted Powe, a former collision repair student at Butler Community College.
Ted passed away this past year (2008) and his family set up a scholarship in memory of him. The family wants the scholarship to help other students entering the collision repair industry. You can read more about Ted and the scholarship at http://bcrn.blogspot.com/2008/10/ted-powell-memorial-scholarship.html
A current student, Devin Olson, and his family own the Carousel Skating Center in Wichita. Devin being cousins with Ted, felt compelled to help his family with this skating event. There will be raffles, prizes and lots of fun. All admission and raffle money will be donated to the scholarship. I will be there with my kids and maybe I can even score a few Butler shirts and caps to give away. For more information about the event visit http://www.carouselskate.net/specialevents.htm
Be sure to put this on your calendar and stop by to support Butler Community College and the Collision Repair industry.
