BRIDGES Rural at College of Eastern Idaho
Our BRIDGES Rural team is in Idaho this week, attending the Construction Combine hosted by College of Eastern Idaho. Students work alongside experienced contractors to learn framing, drywall, concrete, and more skills on the first day of the combine. On the second day, they build sheds that will be donated to community causes.
