The Omaha, NE, location enjoyed its largest gathering to date at this year’s annual holiday party. The theme—Casino Night—set the tone for a fun and festive evening, with many attendees dressing for the occasion. Employees dropped raffle tickets for the chance to win prizes of their choosing, and we are grateful to the many vendors who generously donated items to help make the night a success.
A very big thank‑you to our donors: Van Meter, AccuTech, Raka Rentals, Echo, NMC Cat, Hanger Hardware, 3E, Graybar, Old Castle, Winnlectric, Commonwealth Electric Company of the Midwest, Shermco, Cresent Electric, and Hilti.
After dinner, everyone had the chance to test their luck at our very own casino, operated by members of the Executive Leadership Team (T Michael Price, Billy Friesen, and Neil Davidson), the Omaha Leadership Team (Dan Cahalan, John Randall, Brian Lund, Noah Thornton, Justin Hess, and Ron Castro), and a few of our Shared Services leaders (Jon Folkers and Kandice Perkins). Together, they kept the casino running smoothly for two hours and helped create a fantastic experience for everyon
At the end of the night, the top three chip‑holders were invited to the stage to receive prizes. The winners were:
- 1st Place: Joal Karadeema
- 2nd Place: Angie Beck
- 3rd Place: Caiden Root
All in all, the evening was a true team effort. We are incredibly proud of our Culture Committee for their hard work in organizing this event: Michelle Taubenberger, Jared Colyer, Isaiah Edson, Sarah DeWispelare, Hailee Sluga, and Josephine Fox.
