The director of the ��ݮ��ƵAPP Institute, Mark Brooks, reflected, “This was my first year attending the ABC National Craft Championship, so my understanding of the event was based on stories from our instructors about past craft championships. It was awesome to see our team setting up areas for the competition and to see the effort and pride they displayed in creating a safe and professional area for the competitors. Watching our team members compete and bring home numerous awards was very fulfilling. It fills you with pride for our company to watch our people work so hard to perfect their craft. After seeing so many talented craft professionals compete, I believe our future is in great hands.”
