Building for our veterans…
Earlier last week, Karl had the privilege of touring Nickerson & O’Day’s $2M addition and renovation project at the Maine Veterans Home in South Paris. The work will provide a beautiful new kitchen, dining and lounge areas for our veterans who deserve nothing but the best! Kudos to Project Superintendent Jay Spox who is wrapping things up with his son Kyle Spox! Keep up the good work guys!

Continuing a Maine boatbuilding tradition…

Building the Future of Maine…
In 2008, Nickerson & O’Day completed the new dormitory project at Foxcroft Academy to house their successful international student boarding program. To say thanks and to literally help “build” our next generation of Maine leaders, Karl donated $30,000.00 to create the new Nickerson & O’Day Construction/Engineering Scholarship and asked that it be given to a graduating FA senior headed for a STEM degree in a Maine college or university. On June 11th, the 10th scholarship was awarded from the fund to Colby Garland, a member of FA’s graduating Class of 2017! Congratulations, Colby…and good luck in your engineering career!

Keep Up The Great Work!
This past Friday, Karl made rounds to several of our Nickerson & O’Day projects including our $4M Emergency Room expansion at Downeast Community Hospital in Machias and our $2.5M Hart Hall dormitory renovation at Husson University. Superintendents Lee Bryant and Thomas Umel have each of these difficult projects running well! Keep up the great work, guys!
