Take Your Child to Work Day in OKC

OKC Take Your Child To Work 4-26-2018 #4.jpg

A Family Day at the OKC Streetcar Jobsite

It was a successful Take Your Child To Work Day in Oklahoma City! We teamed up with our partners on the OKC Streetcar project, Oklahoma Electrical Supply Co., Herzog Contracting, and Stacy and Witbeck for this fun family event. Everyone in attendance was invited to check out a streetcar, operate a track switch machine at the maintenance facility, and receive an educational lesson from Professor Dave Schaeffer on the overhead contact and traction power systems including the equipment we use to complete our work. A great time was had by all!
