With the support of IMEC, CHAMPIONNow! was able to produce 6 in person camps over the course of 6 months in Illinois region. These camps were held at East Lyden High School (2) during June, College of Lake County (2) in November, and Iverson & Company (2) in December. We look forward to expanding this program around the region and around the country going forward into 2024!

About CHAMPION Now®
“As a business owner serving the manufacturing community, I believe there is nothing more important than the young people of this country. “
Terry M. Iverson
Finding America’s Greatest Champion is a book I challenge you to buy and to read. Why?
The future of manufacturing in the United States depends on us to bring change:
- Change in how we view the art of manufacturing
- Change in how we view the return on the prototypical college education.
- Change in how to contend with student loan debt
- Change in our country’s place in making the world’s products.
- Change in how we view workers who consider themselves craftsmen – “makers”
- Change in how we view American made products
- Change in how we mentor our next generation youth
Listen to a sample of the book!
