Northern Maine Community College Jesse Taggett is Bound for a National Skills Competition in Georgia

001e

A Woodland teen who is probably Aroostook County’s youngest certified welder is bound for a national skills competition in Georgia.

When Caribou High School junior Jesse Taggett was just 10 years old, he started following his father, Rick Taggett, around his welding shop. Watching his dad fabricate everything from snowmobiles to farm equipment, he caught the spark himself.

Father and son will head to the SkillsUSA National Leadership & Skills Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, in June, representing the Caribou Technology Center. 

Congrats Jesse -- You certainly learned from the best!
