BUCYRUS―A senior at Pioneer Career & Technology through Fairway School recently won first place at the United Commercial Travelers of America (UCT) Regional Convention in Columbus.
Christian Olmstead participated in the Safety Poster Contest sponsored by UCT Bucyrus Council #334 earlier this summer. His poster traveled to the UCT Ohio to compete against other posters completed by students with developmental disabilities from high schools around Ohio.
Olmstead’s winning poster is entitled “How to Use a Ladder Matters. He is in the home remodeling class so learning how to use a ladder really does matter to him personally.
In July, Olmstead’s poster traveled on to New Orleans, Louisiana, to the UCT Supreme Convention. Even though his poster met with even stronger competition from all over the United States and Canada at the UCT Supreme Convention, he won third place.
