Celebrating Trades in Maple Ridge

Celebrating Trades in Maple Ridge

Wednesday July 13th from 2-5pm in Memorial Peace Park

Register Today for Updates and Info! #CelebratingTradesMR

Created and held by WorkBC Maple Ridge, this event will celebrate the local trades businesses that have kept working and building our city throughout the pandemic, along with the unions and organizations that represent trades, and the service providers who assist with training and finding trades work for people.

There will be demonstrations and hands on projects for everyone to learn more about the various trades, including the Ironworkers Union's 35 foot demonstration trailer! We will also be presenting hiring opportunities for the trades so people can have the opportunity to speak directly with the companies who are hiring.

Local service providers and unions will have information on how to find work and/or training in these industries and describe the types of work opportunities, wages, and duties that are available NOW!

The weather will be beautiful and there will be lots to see and do, so come out and join us in Celebrating and Learning About Trades in Maple Ridge!
