Waukesha Metal Products wins grand prize in Manufacturing Day video contest

Waukesha® Metal Products has been named upper Midwest regional winner and grand prize winner in the Manufacturing Day video contest. The contest, split into five different regions, encouraged organizations to share how they celebrate National Manufacturing Day and why others should as well.

Twenty-three organizations submitted videos for the contest. Regional winners received a screening of “American Made Movie” — Manufacturing Day’s national movie partner — and their choice of a Manufacturing Day banner or feather flag to use at their 2014 Manufacturing Day event.

As a grand prize winner, WMP also will receive a visit from Mark Andol, founder of the Made in America store and owner of General Welding & Fabricating in New York, at its “American Made Movie” screening. He will introduce the movie and do a Q & A session with the audience, or a media interview. WMP will also receive a $250 gift card to use in purchasing refreshments for the movie celebration and a scholarship in the company’s name based on a percentage of each licensed fee collected for scheduled screenings of “American Made Movie.”
