Some may call it "spooky season," but for us at IndustryWeek, October is Manufacturing Month, a time when companies pay special attention to their outreach with plant tours, school visits and hands-on activities. We want to hear what attracted you to manufacturing, and your age when you chose your career. We may use your answers in an upcoming story.
