On Friday, June 2nd a Fundraiser was held at Village Gate Square to benefit Mental Health Awareness. Gorbel® was one of the major sponsors of the event. This year the event was titled “
Welding for Wellness”. Over 70 welded sculptures were created by metal trade students from Genesee Valley Educational Partnership, BOCES-Monroe 1 & 2 and Wayne Finger Lakes BOCES. The pieces of art were auctioned off with the proceeds supporting the Mental Health Association.
A team of welders from Gorbel® joined the event so that they could interact with students in the metal trades and talk about welding in the industrial space. Many students and teachers visited our Gorbel® table, and since last week…we have had several students visit us already as they contemplate how to use their talents in industry once they graduate from high school.
Thanks to the Gorbel team that supported the event through their presence and interactions! (L-R): Jeff Carey, Jim Mousso, Kurt Romieser, Mike Kribs, Kent Matteson, David Pritchard, Curtiss Ridall, Jake Reiber, Max Powell
