🌟 **Employee of the Month – Will Garrett** 🌟

Some people earn respect because of what they do. Others earn it because of who they are. Will Garrett has spent the last 27 years doing both.

Since joining our team in 1999, Will has become one of those rare employees who can do just about anything and do it well. One day he's operating an epoxy truck, the next he's running a waterblaster, painting parking lots, or helping wherever the need is greatest. His versatility is unmatched, but what truly sets him apart is the attitude he brings to work every day.

Will has a way of making every teammate around him better. He works well with everyone, leads by example, and never hesitates to jump in and help. If you ask around the company who they trust, who they enjoy working with, or who they look up to, Will's name comes up often.

For me personally, Will is someone I'm proud to call both a colleague and a friend. Over the years, he has earned the respect of an entire company through hard work, humility, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to get the job done right.

In an industry that depends on teamwork, there are people who make the team stronger simply by being part of it. Will is one of those people.

Thank you, Will, for everything you've done since 1999. Your dedication, work ethic, and character have left a lasting impact on this company, and we are fortunate to have you on our team.

Congratulations on being named **Employee of the Month**. A recognition that is well deserved by one of our very best.
👏👏👏

🌅 Picture of the Month

This month’s featured photo comes from Eric Edman, capturing one of our waterblasting crews staying late and working into the evening to get the job done.

Between the incredible colors in the nighttime sky, the glow of the headlights, and the rainbow created in the water spray, Eric captured a great image of the dedication our crews bring to the job every day....and night.

Thanks for sharing, Eric, and thank you to the crew for putting in the extra time to keep the project moving!

📸 Picture of the Month – April (Handwork Edition) 👏

We’re proud to highlight some great work completed in April at Watkins Middle School, along with projects at Cedar Point and The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.

Congratulations to Paul Hartley on his winning submission from Watkins Middle School. When weather was moving in, the crew stepped up and adjusted their schedule to beat the rain and get the job done on time. That kind of flexibility and commitment is what it’s all about.

Thank you to everyone who participated this month. Keep up the great work! We’re looking forward to seeing what May brings.

This week, and every week, we recognize National Work Zone Awareness.

Our team is showing their support by wearing orange and representing something bigger than just one company. The logo on these shirts brings together all the names, people, and history that make up our team - past and present.

Behind every work zone is a crew made up of sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters. People with families counting on them to make it home safely.

We take pride in the work we do, but safety will always come first.

Slow down. Stay alert. Respect the zone.

Do your part to keep our people safe. 🦺🧡

🚧 National Work Zone Awareness Week 🚧

This week is about every crew working in our roadways performing striping, paving, concrete, utilities, traffic control, and more. The men and women out there aren’t just workers…they’re sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters.

At Griffin, Aero-Mark, and ARL, our teams are out there every day working alongside live traffic to keep roads safe and moving. We take pride in what we do, but we also rely on the public to do their part.

👉 Slow down
👉 Stay alert
👉 Respect the work zone

Please do your part to keep them safe, so we can do our part to keep your family safe.

Work zones are temporary. The impact of a moment behind the wheel isn’t.

After a long winter, our Columbus and Fremont teams are officially out of hibernation and back at it.

We kicked off the 2026 season with our annual meeting. It's our way of bringing everyone together for training, information sessions, and a chance to recognize the hard work that drives this team forward. From time in the classroom to time around the trucks, it’s always a great way to get aligned before the season ramps up.

You’ll see a few snapshots here. Our Columbus crews in front of one of our many application trucks, team training moments, and some well-earned awards.

We’re proud of this group and the standard they set every year. Looking forward to a safe, productive, and successful 2026.

Thanks again to the Ohio Contractors Association for hosting our event!

❄️ November Picture of the Month Winner ❄️

Big congratulations to Justin Wilt, our November Picture of the Month winner!

This photo pretty much sums up late-season striping in Ohio. Snow on the ground, a striper ready to roll, and a crew doing their best to answer the call. Even though the weather had other plans, we still showed up to try and take care of our customer.

Sometimes the job gets done… and sometimes you just get a great picture out of it 😄 Either way, it’s a good reminder of the dedication our crews bring every day.

Nice shot, Justin, and thanks to everyone who shared photos this month! ❄️👏
