St. Michael, MN– Have you ever wondered what happens inside manufacturing plants? From October 24-26, you can see for yourself during the Dream It Do It Statewide Tour of Manufacturing as industry opens their doors for tours across the state as the Minnesota Manufacturers’ Week ends.
Pellco Machine will be open from 10:00 to 2:00 Saturday October 26th and invites the public, including families, job seekers, and school and community groups, to learn first-hand how people make the things we use every day.

Manufacturing is the backbone of Minnesota’s economy. According to the Department of Employment and Economic Development, the industry impacts over 30% of Minnesota jobs. “We’re excited to open our doors so youth, families and job seekers can see the technology, creativity and need for educated employees in their community in advanced manufacturing,” shares Randy Pelletier.
The Tour of Manufacturing is supported by the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, 360° Manufacturing and Applied Manufacturing ATE Regional Center of Excellence, Central Minnesota Manufacturers Association, Minnesota Precision Manufacturing Association, Arrowhead Manufacturers and Fabricators Association, Tri-State Manufacturers’ Association and the Minnesota Manufacturers Coalition.
