On Friday, 4/24/26, Mr. Bryan Iler if Wesco spoke to students about overcoming adversity, networking, giving your best effort, and that each and every student is valuable, has something to offer and has a purpose. Mr. Iler shared his personal story as an example of all of these things and it was truly inspiring!

On Thursday, April 23rd, some of our 12 for Life students visited the Georgia Army National Guard at Dobbins AFB in Marietta GA.

Students participated in a physical training session (PT) and were able to look at (and sit in) Blackhawk helicopters. During our time there, we were able to see a Blackhawk take flight for a mission to deliver water to fight the Georgia wildfires.
Students were able to see what Army Aviation jobs are available, whether it be a pilot, crew chief, mechanic etc. sparking some interest in enlistment!
Students probably felt the effects of the trip the following day!

On March 23, 1950, Roy Richards, Sr. founded Southwire with just 12 employees and three used machines. He was driven by a simple but powerful vision: to bring electric light to his grandmother’s home. From those humble beginnings, Southwire has grown to be North America’s leading manufacturer of wire and cable solutions, with more than 9,000 team members around the world.

As we mark 76 years, we’re looking ahead with the same spirit that brought us here. By investing in our people and processes, strengthening our operations and keeping safety at the forefront of everything we do, we’re committed to building on our legacy. Here’s to the work we’re proud of and the future we’re building together.

Happy 76th anniversary, Southwire!
