The Hopkinsville – Christian County Economic Development Council coordinated Business and Industry Day for 27 junior and senior high school students participating in this year's Youth Leadership Program.

The day began with Dr. John Yates and staff from the MSU Hopkinsville Campus introducing the class to their facility and discussing local educational opportunities.  

The remainder of the day was spent touring local manufacturing facilites learning about the manufacturing processes, product information, and career oppoutunites. 

A special thank you goes to three of our great industries participating in this event -FP International, Comefri USA, and Riken Elastomers.
