Doddridge County Schools invites everyone to stop by and see our new Trucking Simulator before the football game this evening!

We’re sincerely grateful for Hall Drilling’s investment in our students’ futures, and we’re excited to see how their support will make a lasting impact on our community. Don’t miss the opportunity to see this new resource in action and learn more about this amazing program!
