Sandy Creek students attend Manufacturing Day, Hosted by CiTi BOCES
Middle and high school students from Sandy Creek recently attended the Manufacturing Day Expo held at the CiTi BOCES Mexico campus.
Students were able to learn about the industry and its diverse career paths by engaging with 32 different local manufacturers who were present for the event.
One of the manufacturers in attendance was Felix Schoeller out of Pulaski. Their HR Manager Jessica Kolenda said We participate in these events because they are mutually beneficial to our company and to the students. We are given a chance to market our name and brand while explaining that there are amazing career opportunities with great wages and benefits in our hometowns.
The expo was well attended and included a visit from Senator Mark Walczyk who represents northern Oswego County in the 49th Senate District. Walczyk spent his time meeting with participants and watching unique demonstrations from industry.
