NOBLESVILLE – The Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) National Craft Championships were held in Kissimmee, Florida, on Thursday, March 16th.
This competitive arena provides an opportunity for craft apprentices, from across the country, to demonstrate their construction knowledge, superior skills, and safe work practices.
These individuals competed for top honors in the constantly growing field of construction
professionals. The competition required an intensive two-hour exam, as well as a six-hour, hands-on, practical performance test.
Gaylor Electric is excited to announce that their team swept the Commercial/Industrial category bringing home individual medals of gold, silver, and bronze! Additionally, the Commercial Team received the bronze medal, our Utility champion took home a silver medal and the overall Safety Award.
These National Craft Champions represent the future of the construction industry and highlight the career opportunities that construction can provide.
