Winner Winner! While at the Build My Future event, a couple of our students came closest to the paint match put on by Badger Corrugating Company of La Crosse. Badger sent some cool merch for our winners to rep around town. Thank you to Badger for not only being at the event but for also sending out some awesome gear!


A few weeks ago over 95 students and chaperones participated in the 3rd. Annual Build My Future event put on by the La Crosse Area Builders Association. Over 1,600 people were in attendance to experience what 80+ companies, schools and programs had to offer. The students participated in operating equipment, changing tires, building planters for the community, welding and truck driving simulators, VR simulators of wiring and climbing radio towers, EMT and first responder duties, concrete pouring and finishing, plumbing and countless other activities. A huge thank you to not only LABA for organizing this event but also the companies that took time to create the activities and send the students home with cool merch. Everyone in attendance really appreciated it.
