VADNAIS HEIGHTS—A four-week manufacturing career summer program ended with four smiling students and four smiling business representatives at Jimmy’s Event Center Aug. 1

“Manufacturing is kind of the bread and butter of our community,” said Ling Becker, executive director of the Vadnais Heights Economic Development Corporation (VHEDC), which supported the program with funds. About 70 to 80 of 315 businesses in Vadnais Heights are manufacturers, she noted.
