Learning concrete has never looked this fun! 👏

A huge shoutout to SUN Area Technical Institute, and instructor Ryan Swinehart for bringing the Skate4Concrete Certification® to life during their summer camp! These 7th, 8th, and 9th grade students spent four half-days learning concrete fundamentals while working together to build their own mini concrete skatepark! 🛹

This is exactly what the Skate4Concrete Certification® is all about. Hands-on learning that introduces students to the science of concrete, teamwork, creativity, and the many career opportunities available in our industry.

A special thank you to Heidelberg Materials for supplying the rock, sand, cement, and continued support, and to Pennsylvania Aggregates and Concrete Association (PACA) for helping make opportunities like this possible! 🙌

Great work SUNTech! Thank you for inspiring the next generation of concrete professionals! Check out their journey and the awesome mini concrete skateparks they created!
