On Thursday members of the K.B.M board were invited to the grand opening of the Southeast Michigan Construction Academy in Sterling Heights! Along with their partners Associated builders and Contractors the 60,000 sq foot building on campus covers all aspects of building trades as well as Welding and fabrication.

They also have another 35,000 sq foot building on the campus to develop later.

Currently the building is a mix of classrooms and shop space so students can get both classroom and hands on teaching.

Were excited for them as they are a huge supporter of us and our event!
