On February 18, 2023, WCTA members experienced a behind the scenes tour of Local 150’s training site!
The ASIP Local 150 Training Site is in Wilmington, IL. The tour went throughout the facility including the outdoors areas. Members also got to see restored vintage construction equipment on site like dozers, rollers, and steam shovels.
Thank you to our awesome tour guide, Local 150, and our members for making this such a great experience. Special thanks to Lane Heatherwick and Brad Eike for the help in setting up the tour.
