On the Heri...Just to make a point of clarification. On the Heritage high school this was a team effort and in the beginning this is when I had set up a meeting with Ralph Pophell and Dr. DaPatri and at this meeting was Margaret Lewis who is the CTE director for Brevard County. It was through this initial conversation that Dr. Eric Roe came and met with Margaret Lewis and Myself and a few others. This was in my opinion the start of the process to bring more certificate programs to Brevard County and also bring more of an emphasis to manufacturing. <br /><br />So this was not a single handed effort but a collaborative effort from many as is in most initiatives that are taking place in the education arena. Just want to point this out as I do not want to have any one offended by such a bold statement.<br /><br />Also a point on the CAPE Act. This as you know is something the state has control over and we had worked with Dr. Eric Roe as well on this and Eric worked very hard to make sure that the language was in the CAPE Act so the school system could still support the initiatives of the manufacturing sector. Again I hate to try to say this effort is all on one person and have found that through the efforts of many we have made great strides to where we are today.<br /><br />Now as a manufacturer I have spent a lot of hours with Dr. Eric and the Banner Center for manufacturing and have spent a lot of hours at Tallahassee during the Capitol days to try to convince legislators we need to continue to help support the efforts of the Banner Centers and that manufacturing continues to have a need for a qualified work force. There have been many hours spent on meetings and many discussion groups to bring us to this point today. So I just want to make sure credit go’s where it should go and sorry for the update but I just wanted to make sure nobody took the information written wrong. <br /><br />Thank you,<br />Art Hoelke<br />VP/GM<br />Knight's Armament Company<br />701 Columbia Blvd.<br />Titusville, FL 32927Art Hoelke, VP/GM Knight's Armament Companynoreply@blogger.com
