Last month, Master Pneumatic held their fourth annual Fluid Power Action Challenge for 108 middle school students from the Warren Consolidated School District “Middle School Mathematics Science Technology Center (MS)2TC,” a half-day honors program for students from four middle schools. Master Pneumatic has been partnering with Macomb Community College since the beginning to provide students the experience of what it could be like to walk the halls as a college student. MCC donated the event space, lunch, and competition kits for the teams while several local companies helped sponsor the event and provided volunteers.
