The Cook plant is Organizing an Exploring Post. This is going to be a great experience for anybody from 14-20 years old that wants to try out various career paths available at Cook. Also give those who participate a chance to network at Cook and have a leg up on getting hired at Cook. The Open House is May 30th from 6-8. Sign ups using the QR code in the attached flyer.
