Ground Round
Manufacturing Month 
8th Grade Essay Contest

Essay winners from the five Oshkosh Area School District middle schools' technical education courses read their essays and won $25 in Oshkosh Chamber of Commerce gift certificates, along with an award certificate, for winning the Manufacturing Month essay contest sponsored by the Oshkosh Rotary. 

Each of the five Oshkosh Area School District 8th grade technical education classes toured a manufacturer in Oshkosh during Manufacturing Month in October. The students based their writing on what they learned from the Chamber coordinated manufacturing tours to Arrowhead Systems, A.P. Nonweiler, Lapham-Hickey Steel, Jay Manufacturing, and Muza Metal Products. 

On Monday, November 26th the Rotary hosted the essay winning students, their parents, teachers, principals, and employers to a celebratory luncheon. "Seeing is believing. You can't understand the opportunities available if you don't know that they are there. Career exploration tours like this afford students a first-hand view at the diverse opportunities available in manufacturing today". Patti Andresen-Shew, Director of Education and Talent Development, Oshkosh Chamber of Commerce.

As a business owner, you understand the importance of purchasing insurance protection. Yet, ultimately the goal is to never have to use it. We provide a full spectrum of loss prevention & DOT compliance to help prevent losses. Our goal is to promote a safer work environment for you, your employees and customers.

We offer a wide variety of human resource consulting services including: On-site Surveys & Loss of Control Services, Workers Compensation Case Management & Injury Review, Return to Work & Safety Program Development, Drug Testing Programs, Employee Handbooks, HR Policies & Procedures, OSHA & Other Federal/State Compliance Reviews, Ergonomic Assessments.

Our agency is more than a business to simply "quote" or "bid" your insurance program. We look to create a long-term client partnership with the companies we work with. We look at your insurance policy as a full 12 month commitment, not a one-time transaction when your policy renews. We proactively advise and make recommendations to bring our clients to a level of satisfaction with their insurance experience.
