The 4th Annual Walbec Group Trades Day at Camp Whitcomb was a huge success! We’re thankful to the Boys and Girls Club for inviting us to participate with various trade partners to offer an inside look into the construction industry. Carpenters, Cement Masons, Operating Engineers, Painters, Bricklayers, and Tilesetters engaged with students, offering hands-on activities to showcase their craft. Seeing the students learn about the rewarding opportunities available in the trades and through apprenticeship was exciting.
Thank you to everyone who spent time with over 60 youth campers. A special thank you goes out to the carpenters for coordinating with student camp leaders to complete a project that will benefit the camp for years to come.
Please visit the Department of Workforce Development or the Northeast Wisconsin Building & Trades Council to learn more about apprenticeships.
