What better way to spend the end of the week than hanging out with a few thousand middle school students?
Our RiverWild team was honored to participate in JoCo Works, an industry-led event for 8th grade students to inspire what’s possible for the future workforce. This in-person career exploration event was set up at Johnston Community College, where over 3,000 young men and women interacted with various industries.
We had a blast talking about the endless possibilities in a construction career, and the impact of choosing the right community for employment. From equipment testing, to prize wheel spinning, to countless questions answered (if you know, you know!) these students explored it all with our crew.
Thank you to Johnston County Public Schools, Johnston Community College, Benson Area Chamber of Commerce-North Carolina, Clayton Chamber of Commerce, Triangle East Chamber of Commerce, Johnston County NC – Economic Development, local government, and various business leaders for the opportunity to meet the future workforce in Johnston County!
