Operation Graduate SBT Factory Tour

Students from Operation Graduate had an opportunity to tour SBT with Greg Pickren on February 18, 2019. Operation Graduate is an after school program run by Paula Kay at United Way. Students from the neighborhood surrounding SBT gather together after school to learn about building a successful future. The program teaches students how to maintain a strong GPA, build a competitive resume, and apply to colleges. SBT hosted Operation Graduate students at SBT, so they could see the inside of a business and learn about how the company operates. Greg Pickren and SBT manager, Cj Lammers, spoke to the students about what they look for when they are hiring and qualities that make good employees. Greg Pickren, owner of SBT, commented about the Operation Graduate tour:

Our company becomes stronger when we can involve young people in our community. We are always looking to hire hard workers and we enjoy sharing the exciting things that are happening in our factory. This group of students had excellent questions. They clearly have bright futures ahead of them.
