Watson Electrical Apprentice Places 2nd at ABC National Craft Competition Percy Manuel of Watson Electrical won the Silver Medal in the ABC NationalCraft Championship competition in San Diego. The competition is held in conjunction with the ABC National Convention. The National Craft Championships are composed of fourth year apprentices from all over the country. The two-day competition, in thirteen different trades, covers both a written exam and a practical hands-on project test.

“A true honor to be recognized as being one of the best in the country in your trade,” said Doug Carlson, ABC Carolinas President & CEO. “The National Craft Championships are like the Olympics for the Construction Industry. Winning a Silver Medal is an incredible accomplishment.

” Manuel qualified for the competition by winning the North Carolina Electrical Apprenticeship Contest hosted by the North Carolina Department of Labor in October.

Manuel’s trip to the National Competition was funded by the Bill Boyette Fund, CECA’s Educational Fund named in memory of Watson Electrical’s long time president who believed very strongly in training and education. A portion of the proceeds from CECA’s Spring and Fall Golf Tournaments goes to the Bill Boyette Fund to fund events such as this.

Congratulations to Percy and Watson Electrical!!!!!
