Effingham County native Jason Lovett remembers when, not too long ago, students didn’t have many opportunities to tour local industries. Lovett, now the vice president of the CST Covers plant in the Effingham Industrial Park, has seen the area grow from “a community with no industry whatsoever — just a gas station in Rincon — to a community with quite a bit of industry.” To provide students an up-close look at the workings of its facility, CST Covers gave a tour last week to 14 students in the logistics management pathway at the Effingham College and Career Academy.
