As Central Susquehanna WSCM’s Best of PA nominees, Mount Carmel Area and Huntingdon Area Middle Schools recently joined IMC’s Lauri Moon, Manager of the Central Susquehanna WSCM program, at the What’s So Cool About Manufacturing® 7th Annual Statewide Awards held at the Whitaker Center in Harrisburg, PA. Mount Carmel was partnered regionally with Dyco, Inc. with Huntingdon partnered with Gardners Candies, Inc. This prestigious event celebrates student creativity, innovation, and storytelling in highlighting careers in manufacturing across the state.
Central Columbia Middle School featuring Strong Industries from the Central Susquehanna contest, was recognized for garnering the largest number of regional vote totals across the state, during three days of online voting where all Pennsylvania teams competed to win their regional Viewers Choice Award.
Also, in attendance from the Central Susquehanna region was Central Columbia Middle School who teamed up with Strong Industries, a leading local manufacturer, to create a compelling video that captured what makes manufacturing both cool and essential.
Their hard work paid off — the team was recognized for receiving the highest number of regional Viewers Choice votes in the entire state of Pennsylvania! Over a three-day online voting period, schools from across the commonwealth competed for this honor, and Central Columbia Middle School’s entry stood out with the most enthusiastic support. This recognition not only highlights the talent and teamwork of the students but also shines a spotlight on the innovative work being done at Strong Industries and the vital role manufacturers play in our communities. We’re incredibly proud of our students and grateful to Strong Industries for being a fantastic partner in this inspiring educational initiative.
Congratulations to the three teams representing the Central Susquehanna region!
