Busy week for the TCU team! Our staff from all three locations enjoyed an evening at Topgolf last night before hosting an event at the Dorchester County Career and Technology Center for a group of local fleet managers and their staff from seven different agencies. As a business partner of the Career School, we also included over twenty of their students who were interested in automotive technology career paths. Thanks to Federal Signal, we had staff on hand to conduct demos and training on programming their products.

We are proud to support our customers and enjoyed the opportunity to network with young professionals.
