SkillsUSA Logo Runs on the Dollar Shave Club Camaro
Published: March 26, 2018
SkillsUSA’s logo was one of hundreds of companies featured on the No. 2 Dollar Shave Club Chevrolet Camaro at the March 10 NASCAR race at Phoenix ISM Raceway. The driver was rookie Matt Tifft, who was racing for his new team at Richard Childress Racing. SkillsUSA secured one of the coveted spots on the right side of the hood of the car. The race was televised as part of regular NASCAR programming. Thanks to Craig Moore, SkillsUSA’s Senior Manager, Web/Technology, who spotted this opportunity during a Dollar Shave commercial while watching the 2017 Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade. Tifft, formerly with Joe Gibbs Racing, came in 7th out of 40 cars in the race.
SkillsUSA is sending eight skilled competitors to Lyon, France on Sept. 10-15 to compete in seven events during the 47th biennial WorldSkills Competition.
SkillsUSA students have been elected as national officers to serve more than 400,000 members for the 2024-25 school year. The 14 high school and college/postsecondary students will serve as advocates for SkillsUSA and career and technical education (CTE) and will lead two national conferences, facilitate sessions for students and instructors and advocate on behalf of SkillsUSA to elected officials and representatives of business and industry as they represent the national organization at various events.
