FCCTC Highlights Machining Technology Program

The Franklin County Career and Technology Center is highlighting its Machining Technology program, which trains students to create parts using manual machines and computer numerical control equipment.

Students develop technical skills that can lead to manufacturing careers in industries including automotive, aviation, defense, health care, space exploration, robotics and electronics.

Machinists produce parts and materials used in equipment and products across those industries.

Who We Are

The Franklin County Free Press, established by Vicky Taylor in 2019, emerged as a beacon of local journalism for the residents of Franklin County. Under Vicky's leadership, it quickly became an essential source of news, particularly at a time when major newspaper publications were increasingly overlooking local coverage.

On January 1, 2022, the torch was passed to Nathan Neil and his firm, Neil Publishing, LLC. Neil, a local entrepreneur with multiple thriving businesses in Chambersburg, shares Vicky's fervent commitment to both the community and the world of local journalism.

Rooted in the heart of Franklin County and powered by its residents, the Franklin County Free Press continues to bridge the gap, ensuring that the local stories, events, and issues that matter most to the community remain in the spotlight.
