It looks like giving time, money and providing resources to every aspect of our rural life from lawn mower races to advocating for a women’s shelter. It looks like supporting school events, hospice and soup kitchens.

This company that designs and manufactures composite floats and cargo pods for aircraft, started in 1987 with 33 employees now employs 67 and will possibly grow to 100 in the near future.
