Annual Nickerson & O’Day Christmas Breakfast


On December 23rd, we held our annual Nickerson & O’Day Christmas Breakfast at the Lucerne Inn where we reviewed 2016’s highlights, unveiled our new advertising campaign (awesome!) and our potential office expansion (we need one!), heard from our Safety, Accounting and Operations Managers, distributed bonuses, new company logo gear and door prizes, acknowledged attending past/retired NOD employees and then awarded our 2016 “One Clawed Hammer” Award – which goes to the NOD manager that “does the most with the least!”

Many thanks to our many satisfied clients for having faith in our team…and our dedicated, professional and loyal employees without whom, none of this would have been possible.

 

 


“Gingerbread House” decorating contest


December 23rd: A bit ago at the Downeast Community Hospital, the Senior Leaders challenged all departments to participate in a “Gingerbread House” decorating contest. The completed gingerbread buildings were on display during their annual Lite a Life celebration. The ladies in Emergency Department created a gingerbread building our Nickerson & O’Day’s construction site of the Emergency Wing, they took 2nd place! Great work ladies!


Nickerson & O’Day, teams up with the awesome crew at Bangor Fire Department


December 15th: Every year, Karl’s construction company, Nickerson & O’Day, teams up with the awesome crew at Bangor Fire Department to “fill the fire engine” with gifts and deliver them to the Bangor region Toys for Tots program…which makes sure that kids that otherwise wouldn’t have anything under their tree Christmas morning will see that Santa didn’t forget them this year. Many thanks to Jared Bowden, John York, Andy Willigar and Chief Thomas Higgins for allowing us to help them bring so many smiles to these young faces! Merry Christmas!

Watch Here!


Karl had the honor of speaking before roughly 300 folks


On October 29th, Karl had the honor of speaking before roughly 300 folks as we cut the ribbon on our latest Nickerson & O’Day creation – the new $10M Sargent Family Recreation and Community Center in Presque Isle!

During Karl’s speech, he announced that we would establish a $30,000.00 Nickerson & O’Day- pledged program for the youth of the region – to develop their health and minds at this amazing new center.

Many thanks to all involved and for allowing Karl and his company to be a part of this great collaboration!


Nickerson & O’Day teams up with the brave men and women of Bangor Fire Department


December 15th: Each year, Nickerson & O’Day teams up with the brave men and women of Bangor Fire Department to raise money and then go on a massive shopping spree for the Toys for Tots program.

This year, we were able to raise about $3,000 and Tuesday night, we visited Bangor stores and “filled the firetruck” to the roof with presents! We then delivered the load to the Bangor region Toys for Tots warehouse for distribution to needy families.

In doing this, we ensure that dozens of children across Maine who otherwise would have nothing under their tree Christmas morning, can see that Santa did not forget them this year!

Many thanks to Bangor Fire Department Chief Thomas Higgins, and firefighters Andy Willigar, Jared Bowden, and John York and many others and their families for allowing us to be part of this great tradition! Merry Christmas to everyone!




To Those Who Care awards – Joint Forces Headquarters Project


On September 2nd, Karl filmed our Nickerson & O’Day ads for this year’s WLBZ2 To Those Who Care awards at our $31M Joint Forces Headquarters building project located near the Veterans Cemetery in Augusta. He then spent a couple hours touring this massive project, currently our largest ongoing job. It looks great! Many kudos to veteran project superintendent Jeff Merrill and Operations Manager Steve Burton for some awesome work on this effort!
