# A Fun Day Close to Home

 May 15, 2026 by [Westinghouse Electric Company](https://info.westinghousenuclear.com/columbia-community-news/author/westinghouse)

Our Westinghouse Emergency Response Team and employees joined Gadsden Elementary School’s Field Day, just minutes from our Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility in Hopkins. SC. Students got to meet our Westinghouse firefighters and take part in water play activities. A fun way to stay connected to the next generation.
