As we have maintained for the past year, the Utica Shale is going to be a jobs machine. This week, Youngstown is hosting the Youngstown Ohio Utica and Natural Gas Conference, the purpose being to put local businesses in touch with the industry leading companies. As the video states the demand for skilled labor is intensifying and local community colleges are stepping up to the challenge. These kids won't be worried about paying off their student loans 10 years from now.
On a personal note, I rode the Interstate Highway boom for years and still look back on that time as the best years of my adult life. This is a great time to be young and single in eastern Ohio and I hope the youngsters know it.
