March 8th, 1-4 p.m. is the date and time set for a Bidder and Vendor Fair for the new Junction City High School project.

The Chief Operations Officer for USD 475, David Wild, said it will be held at Junction City Middle School. “Hutton Construction, the architects will be there, the Small Business Administration told us they will be there if they don’t go out on shutdown again. We hope to market it extensively and have all the suppliers and contractors that might be interested in this work attend.”

This is one step in the process to build the new high school. Officials are hopeful earthwork on the project site can begin in early March.
