Cornell Factory Will Be Closed September 1st for Labor Day

Cornell Pump will be closed this coming Monday for the observance of Labor Day. On this day celebrating labor, we've chosen a few of our favorite historic photos of the Cornell Factory to share with you.
While the technology we use has changed vastly over the years, one thing has not: the dedication our employees have to building the highest quality pumps, right here in America.

Hot Summer Days, Cool Treats

On a hot August day, all manufacturing staff received an ice cream treat to help them cool off. Evoking memories of childhood, racing bicycles, and tightly clasped money, the ice cream truck paid a visit to Cornell to liven up the day of the hard working manufacturing staff. All ice cream was paid for by operations, and staff could pick their favorite from an assortment of bars, cones, cups, and popsicles.

Cornell Pump is STEM-centric!

Colleen Kennedy at work

Cornell Pump is pleased to be involved in an innovative effort to better equip Oregon Teachers to promote science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) careers. As part of the intensive four day curriculum, Cornell Pump project engineer Colleen Kennedy will explain the ‘real life’ applications of science learning in a career such as an engineer, and will contribute to discussions about better engaging all students in STEM-centric classes.
