Nebraska SuperTech is Here!

Tying up loose ends before the big event
Only one week to go! To say that the SuperTech Steering Committee is running around like crazy would be an understatement. There are a lot of little loose ends that still need to be tied up. We’re finalizing catering menus, making sure the news media is aware of our event, sending out maps, sending e-mail reminders- all little things to get people excited for the inaugural SuperTech competition.  Just last week, during a break in the SuperTech action, I had the opportunity to travel to the national SkillsUSA competition to observe two young Nebraskans in action- Billy Dukat and David Miller. Billy and David are both students in Metropolitan Community College’s Diesel Technology Program. Even though they didn’t bring home a medal, it gave me great pride for both SkillsUSA and SuperTech- both are great industry events that acknowledge our hard-working technicians. It gives me so much hope for the future of the industry.  One week from today, we’ll be underway in Hastings, Nebraska! Be sure to check back for a full report in two weeks.
