Summer Campers Get Insiders Tour of TCI NY
Jacy Polyak of TCI NY (blue hard hat) talks about his job with the summer campers from the Riverview Missionary Baptist Church.
The Riverview Missionary Baptist Church summer campers came into TCI for their annual information session on how transformers are recycled and hands-on tour of the state-of-the-art facilities.
Brian Hemlock, President of TCI said, “We love having the campers come in to show them what we do. We introduce them to a real work environment.” Mr. Hemlock spoke about the importance of transformers and their role in the energy grid.
“We also like to have some fun,” says John Barr, Operations Manager. “This year we treated the campers to ice cream from Mr. Ding-A-Ling. We talk and kid around. I always ask the campers who wants to come to work for TCI?”
Jacy Polyak was one of those campers six years ago. He recently came to work at TCI after graduating from the BOCES program. Jacy spoke to the campers about his job at TCI.
“I like what I’m doing. Taking apart the transformers. It’s fun. I like the hours are steady. You’ll understand why that’s important when you go to work.”
