On Armed Forces Day, we recognize those actively serving and the commitment it takes to do so.

Service requires discipline, accountability, and the ability to perform under pressure. These are qualities that set the standard across any field and that standard is reflected in the work of those who serve today.

Thank you for your service.

Small hands, big futures. 💡 SME recently connected with 160+ students at Raymond Central Elementary’s career fair, giving 3rd through 5th grade students a hands-on introduction to the trades.

While wearing child-sized hard hats modeled after those worn on our jobsites, students explored mechanical and electrical tools and engaged in interactive demonstrations that brought basic electrical concepts to life.

It starts here: laying the foundation and introducing young minds to what's possible!

Back for year four 💪

SME returned to Home Builders Association of Lincoln (HBAL) Careers in Construction Day, connecting with 350+ Lincoln Public School students and giving them a hands-on look at the trades.

From bending conduit and wiring unpowered outlets to exploring HVAC systems and stepping up to the welding table, students got the chance to try the work for themselves, many for the first time.

It’s experiences like this that bring the trades to life and open the door to future careers.

Skilled Trades Day is a reminder of what’s built

Skilled Trades Day is a reminder of what’s built in the field and who makes it happen. This work takes skill, precision, and accountability, and the trades offer real career opportunities for those willing to learn.

For those already in the field, and those considering the path, this is where it starts. The path to becoming a skilled tradesperson is built through hands-on experience, learning from the crew around you, and showing up ready to do good work—work that keeps everything moving forward. 💪

Service doesn’t end when the uniform comes off.

Service doesn’t end when the uniform comes off. The precision, teamwork, and commitment built through that experience carry into the work we do every day, across our crews, our projects, and our culture. The impact veterans have continues long after their military service and we’re proud to have so many powering our work and building what comes next.

Happy Military Appreciation Month.
