I’m not sure what the weather will be doing as you read this article, but currently the Iowa weather can’t decide what it wants to do!  The southern area ready-mix plants are starting to close here the week before Thanksgiving, and I’m sure all of the “summer” plants will be closed down by the time you are reading this. Right now it looks as if the “winter” plants will be staying plenty busy thru Christmas. It appears that everyone had a great season, and I believe there may even be some individual records set for yearly production.

 As the year comes to an end, it always reminds me to be thankful for all of our employees who help us attain these records and make this company great. I want to thank each and every one of you for a super construction season, and wish all of you a great Holiday Season with your family and friends! I also want to take this time to thank the families of all of our employees for bearing with us during the long hours of Iowa’s construction season. Without your help and understanding it would be difficult to accomplish all the great work that gets done.

Some will be around this winter to help get the winter work done, please remember to be aware of your surroundings and keep working safely. To all who get laid off, please also remember to be safe and we will see you all in the spring to kick off another great year. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
