Make It In Union County Manufacturing Awareness Week
Last week, October 2 – 6, 2023 was the 10th Annual Make It In Union County Manufacturing Awareness Week.
Make It in Union County is a grassroots effort to increase awareness of the positive impact manufacturers have on our community and to promote manufacturing as a top career choice. Our goal is to increase awareness among students, parents, and educators – that today’s manufacturing field is a great place to work, with excellent career opportunities and high-paying jobs.

Part of Make It involves local industry visiting students in Union County Public Schools Career and Technical Education classrooms as well as industry inviting classes to visit their facilities. This year was a huge success with over 1,100 students having speakers in their classrooms while over 350 went on field trips to local manufacturing facilities.
Thank you to the Union County Chamber of Commerce, Make It In Union County, and the local industry partners that made this week a huge success!
