VANCOUVER, Wash. -- When the Clark County Skills Center celebrates its 25th anniversary, Saturday, May 17th, the captains of the "Time Bandit" from the Discovery Channel's top-rated "Deadliest Catch" will appear as part of the celebration.

Andy and Johnathan Hillstrand will be signing copies of their new book "Time Bandit: Two Brothers, the Bering Sea and One of the World's Deadliest Jobs" from Ballantine Books.

The signing is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 1:00 p.m at the Skills Center, northeast 28th Street in Vancouver.

The celebration runs from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. It also includes tours and displays from the Skills Center's career and technical programs, live music from three local bands, a car show, food booths, a silent auction.

Opened in 1983, the Clark County Skills Center is owned and operated by ten southwest Washington school districts. They provide technical and professional training programs that prepare Clark County high school and college students for the workforce.
