Grateful for a day filled with connection, curiosity, and opportunity at the Drummond Career Fair.

Thank you to the Drummond Area School District for hosting such a meaningful event that brought students, educators, and industry together in one space to explore real futures.

A special thank you to Breanne Hanson for the thoughtful coordination and leadership behind the scenes—your work created an experience that truly made an impact.

We also want to recognize Maria Renz, Drummond YA Coordinator and the students for organizing lunch and creating such a welcoming and generous environment. That level of hospitality made the day feel like a true community event.

To the businesses, Youth Apprenticeship partners, and mentors—thank you for showing up, sharing your knowledge, and opening doors. Because of you, students were able to engage in hands-on learning, ask real questions, and begin to see themselves in future careers across healthcare, trades, public service, and more.

And to the students—your curiosity and willingness to explore is what makes events like this so powerful.

This is what building pathways looks like

A heartfelt thank you to Matt Granberg at Lac Courte Oreilles High School for his outstanding leadership, coordination, and mentorship within the Youth Apprenticeship program.

Matt recently brought the community together by hosting a Youth Apprenticeship Luncheon, creating a space where students could connect directly with local businesses, community members, and tribal leaders. These conversations open doors, spark ideas, and help students see the possibilities for their future right here in their own community.
Through his dedication, students are not only gaining career awareness but building confidence, connections, and real-world skills that will carry them forward.

Thank you, Matt, for your commitment to students and for strengthening the bridge between education and community. Your impact is seen, felt, and deeply appreciated.

✨ “A mentor is someone who sees potential where others may not and helps bring it to life.” ✨
