Announced at last Thursday's Wellsville Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon was the upcoming Special Luncheon for all CC Chamber of Commerce members at the Plumbers & Pipefitters Union training facility. The Special Luncheon is being hosted by the union according to Business Agent Butch Taylor at their $2 million training facility in Boardman.
Taylor remarked that “with the upcoming boom of advanced energy construction in our area there is going to be a tremendous amount of opportunity for young people who want to get into the program.” The facility is located at 493 Bev Road, Building #3, in Boardman, Ohio.
The program will include economic development in both Columbiana & Mahoning Counties, the Marcellus Shale development, advantages of green energy and the facility's training programs. Taylor said a representative of one of the 10th largest contractors in the country will be there to talk about the fabrication they're bringing to the area. He noted there are a couple of different companies relocating to our area.
The Special Luncheon will be held Wednesday, February 23, starting at noon. All area Chamber members are invited to take advantage of this unique opportunity to network with the union and learn about the trade. Any member planning on attending are asked to RSVP through their local Chamber by February 16. Wellsville Area members can RSVP with Randy Allmon either by calling 330-843-3475 or e-mailing rallmon@hotmail.com. The Plumbers & Pipefitters Union are members of the Western Reserve Trade Council.
