On February 4, 2023 AR Engineering participated in judging the National Association of Women in Construction’s (NAWIC), Block Kids Competition. Students in Kindergarten through 6th Grade have the opportunity to build something with Legos and present it to be judged. The time limit is one hour and they can build any non-living thing they want. Once again the judges were blown away by the creativity and the future of engineering is bright with the ingenuity of these kids!
2022 Christmas Party
AR Engineering gathered in early December for our annual Christmas party. After a delicious dinner in Grand Rapids, we walked to VanAndel Arena to watch the Grand Rapids Griffins battle it out against the Texas Stars. Although, the home team didn’t get the W, there were a few pucks that reached the net, a couple of great blocked shots and a few on-ice scuffles! We even tried to get Red to suit up to relieve the Griffin’s goalie.
Stephanie Putt joined the AR Engineering team in September 2022 as a CAD Technician. She is currently working on her AAS Degree in Engineering Technology from Kalamazoo Valley Community College. Prior to joining the team at AR Engineering, she worked two jobs to help put her daughter through college at Albion. Stephanie is a Kalamazoo native and enjoys cooking, hiking and watching hockey.
Every year AR Engineering gets together with our team and their families for some warm weather fun. This year, we enjoyed a cookout with great food that included a delicious smoked brisket! There was something for everyone, including a variety of yard games and swimming in a brand-new beautiful pool. The cookout was great for many reasons, but the most important was an opportunity to continue building a strong team and that takes more than our daily interactions inside the office. We are thankful for everyone and the opportunity to get together with family for a nice summer evening.
AR Engineering was again proud to be a Gold Sponsor for the 2022 Bronson Children Hospital Run and Walk to benefit the Children’s Hospital. We are grateful to partner with a remarkable community health care provider for this great cause, and we thank them and all health care providers for their service. We joined community members from across the area to walk and run for the cause in the rain.
