The future of construction is green 🌱🛠
Thank you to Theresa Lehman for giving a presentation on green construction to our ELCS Wausau Cohort and to Miron Construction for donating hardhats to each participant.
The students were impressed by both the enthusiasm and information presented. We’re excited to see these future trades professionals carry sustainable practices forward into the industry!
