On The Road: A Successful Year for AWS
This summer, the American Welding Society’s Careers in Welding roadshow was rolling strong, making stops at youth-focused events like the BuildSubmarines Fan Zone at Bristol Motor Speedway. Our team helped support new activations that brought the 53’ expandable trailer to life, where visitors tried virtual welding on VRTEX 360 simulators, explored real-world applications, and got a taste of how welding powers everything from infrastructure to defense.
It was a great boost for outreach, helping AWS connect with a younger, trades-curious audience in a completely new setting — and reminding everyone that welding is more than a trade, it’s a high-impact career.
