We’ve been conducting interviews with some really great candidates for the County Internship program! All of them are current Juniors and Seniors from our five local school districts. Programs like this are vital to training the workforce of the future and I am proud to be a part of it again with our wonderful partners from Workforce Solutions Alamo. Good luck to all of the applicants!

I really enjoyed sitting on this week's panel! Another great event Tabitha! The engagement by the participants was great, as were their questions.

ACEDC looks forward to seeing many of participants joining our group.

I had the privilege of touring the largest (by capacity) Bitcoin mining facility in North America with Atascosa County Judge Weldon Cude and ACEDC executive committee members Joe Eustace and Roger Wells. As AI data centers continue to expand in Texas, we wanted to be proactive in our search for information. While there are differences between the two, they are very similar operations. We had some good conversations and gained valuable insight. Thank you to our hosts Heath Davidson, Anthony Muston and Eddie Klekar (and Lollie and Lauren) with Riot Platforms.

Congratulations Joelle & Britni @ Thistle & Twig, LLC!

Last week, my San Antonio Outreach Coordinator, Kelly Brooks, welcomed the brand new Thistle & Twig to Pleasanton and shared information about the services our office offers.

Thistle & Twig, an engraving business, brings even more creativity and craftsmanship to our community. Their work reflects purpose and dedication, and we look forward to seeing their continued growth.

Things are beginning to move in Atascosa County and our communities. Once growth starts, other businesses and industries take note.

This is only the beginning.....

Construction activity continues to increase across the county as several new businesses prepare to tentatively open in the coming months.
