Hi all,
FYI - October 6 is MFG Day, but we also like to think of October as Manufacturing Month - a time to get the word out about manufacturing in the Bay Area.

AMBayArea and the Community Colleges are sponsoring a number of events shown below. I would like to especially point out the following related to students and workforce:

 1) Golf Benefit (lots of fun, and it raises money for student scholarships) - Oct. 20
 2) Manufacturing Ambassadors webinar (learn how to become a volunteer guest speaker, or advisor, for K-12 teachers / students wanting to learn more about manufacturing) - Oct. 4
 3) virtual Job Fair - Oct. 11
 4) Mfg Day tours - if you’re giving a tour, REGISTER it on the Mfg Day website. Even if it’s not open the to the public (you can indicate that), then it’s a great way to remind folks that we manufacture in the Bay Area!

And there are loads of other events so check them out.

Regards,
Mark
