HOWELL TOWNSHIP, NJ - On May 21, the New Jersey Army National Guard is conducting a Recruiting and Career Day at the Howell Township Middle Schools North and South and Wall Township High School. 

 Each of the Howell Township Middle Schools will have an OH-58 Kiowa helicopter land next to the schools at 8:30 a.m. and the pilots and crew will have an opportunity to  visit with the students.  Recruiters will also be available to help answer the students’ questions about career opportunities, tuition assistance and job training in the National Guard.

 After spending the morning at the middle schools, the helicopters will move on to visit Wall Township High School, with arrival scheduled for 1 p.m.  At that time the students will have the same opportunity to visit with the Army aviators and recruiting staff.
