The National Utility Contractors Association (NUCA) and the Nutter Family Foundation announce a new partnership to promote “Dozer Day,” the innovative workforce development program that has introduced thousands of young adults to the nation’s utility construction industry and a meaningful and productive future for themselves.
Dozer Day is a unique experience where kids get up close and personal with construction equipment. This event allows children to explore bulldozers, excavators, and other heavy machinery in a safe and educational environment. The event is a fantastic opportunity for kids to learn about the utility construction industry, discover the science behind these powerful machines, and even sit in the driver’s seat.
“This new Dozer Day partnership between NUCA and the Nutter Foundation will enrich thousands of young men and women, and give them a strong future,” says Doug Carlson, NUCA’s chief executive officer. “Dozer Day provides an unforgettable experience for children, sparking their interest in engineering, construction, and teamwork.”
Over the next several years, NUCA will work with its Chapter network and other organizations and businesses to grow the Dozer Day events in untapped communities and regions, delivering this educational opportunity to thousands more.
