The executives and employees of Titan, a Huntington High School Virtual Enterprise course company are planning a night of food and fun at the Elks Club on Tuesday, March 10. Everyone is invited.

The evening will run from 6-8 p.m. and consist of student presentations, food and beverages and gift basket and a 50/50 raffle, plus some surprises. Admission is $10 for adults and $5 for students with I.D. The Elks Club is located at 195 Main Street.
“Titan will be raising funds for future Huntington Virtual Enterprise firms, to ensure that the next generation of Huntington entrepreneurs have ample resources to pursue their endeavors,” said Abigail Holmes, Titan’s CEO. “Additionally, proceeds from the fundraiser will be used for new design equipment and software for the Huntington High School Virtual Enterprise room.”
