GOLD MEDALIST BRIDGET LONG LEADS STELLAR PERFORMANCE FOR AACPS STUDENTS AT NATIONAL SKILLSUSA COMPETITION
 

Bridget Long captured the gold medal in the Culinary Arts competition  as part of a standout performance at the national SkillsUSA competition in Atlanta.

​

Long, who represented the Center of Applied Technology South at the event and graduated from South River High School earlier this month, had to create and prepare a five-course menu demonstrating technical skills, time management, professionalism, and food safety practices along with completing a written certification exam. The medal carries with it a full scholarship to the Culinary Institute of America in New York, as well as a golden ticket to compete in the World Food Championships.

​

“There were high level competitors at nationals; the level of talent was incredible,” said Long, who is pictured above with CAT South teacher Chef Pam Klink. “SkillsUSA taught me about industry professionalism and enforced that diligence and hard work really do pay off. I’m excited to use this win as a way to kick-start my career in the culinary industry.”
