Questar III BOCES Heavy Equipment Students Work on Community Project for the Durham and the Cornwallville FD

CORNWALLVILLE — Questar III BOCES Heavy Equipment students at Marilyn A. Noonan School at Durham are working on a community project for the Town of East Durham and the Cornwallville Fire Department. Presented with an untouched field, students are tasked with building a pond that the department can use for training and to install a dry hydrant, creating roadways, and leveling the piece of land where the new firehouse will be built. 

Community projects like this are a win-win. Students have the opportunity to gain real-world experience on a real job site, while the town fills a need to serve its residents.
