Each year our team looks forward to attending the ABC Keystone Economic Outlook Breakfast. This year we heard from Dr. Anirban Basu, Chief Economist for ABC who provided an in-depth analysis of current economic trends and forecasts impacting the construction industry and the broader economy. It was a well-attended event and we had the opportunity to open up great dialogue with other industry professionals and peers.

Thank you ABC Keystone for facilitating and for Spooky Nook Sports for hosting!

The Souper Bowl arrived early at Centurion! Office staff gathered together for a potluck, bringing in their favorite homemade soups to share. After sampling each, everyone cast their votes to determine the top soup. And the winner? Howard Peters’ now-famous seafood bisque, which claimed the title of Souper Bowl Champion 2025! Congratulations, Howard, on your victory!

Last week our team had the privilege of attending our third Dale Carnegie workshop at The Out Door Country Club facilitated by Kristen Blain. Through a combination of lectures, guided discussions, and break-out groups we examined the principles of building lasting relationships and enhancing our communication. We also explored how these concepts directly relate to the four key drivers of customer service. Through the lens of our servant leadership approach, we connected these drivers to the core value of putting others first. When we focus on serving our clients, we naturally build trust, loyalty, and strong relationships — the foundation of exceptional customer service.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to the discussion. It’s inspiring to see how we can all grow together in our commitment to building excellent client experiences.

Let’s continue to embody these principles in everything we do!

As we enter a season of gratitude and celebration in November & December, we would like to express our appreciation for our team members who play an integral role in our continued growth and success. We would like to recognize your dedication, professionalism, and skills that continue to build excellence year after year.

Thank you –
Matt Stiffler, Superintendent (6 yrs), Dustin Hoffman, Superintendent (9 yrs), and Kevin Snoke, P.E., CHC, CCHM Snoke, Director of Operations (2 yrs)
