The Home Builders Association of Lincoln’s (HBAL) (hbal.org) Careers in Construction Committee is once again hosting a hands-on Construction Career Day for local area high schools Wednesday, April 23. This event will feature over 25 construction-related companies from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Haymarket Park in Lot 19 (south parking lot), 403 Line Drive Circle.
Planners for the annual Construction Career Day expect over 300 students from Lincoln and the surrounding communities to attend this year. Students will have the opportunity to speak with construction professionals and participate in hands-on construction activities. Some activities include a nail-driving competition, operating heavy equipment, building masonry walls, finishing concrete and much more.
Jereme Montgomery, current HBAL President, said, “attending a construction career day can provide students with valuable opportunities to learn about the industry, meet professionals in the field, and explore career possibilities.”
Together HBAL is helping to build a better Lincoln and engaging the next generation of construction professionals!
