We had a fantastic summer afternoon with our colleagues and their families at HydraForce Family Fun Day at our Vernon Hills facility! ☀️

From barbecue, tacos and ice cream to games, bounce houses, face painting and more, there was plenty of fun for everyone. Our engineers also gave educational plant tours, showing families where we work, what we manufacture and how our products help make machines move.
