Produced by Dan Stiles Associates and owned by Concord City Library, this 1960 short film was presented by Mary Lou Quigley.

The film visits a wide range of workplaces, with both interior and exterior shots, and lots of employees seen close to the camera.

There’s also a lot of information about what the firms are, what they do, and an overview of their processes, skills or custom base.

In the second half, attention turns to schools and hospitals, as well as leisure activities. Twice a week the Police Chief gives ice skating lessons to teenage girls, and boys can enjoy the Basketball Club or Boys Club.
