CASA of Madison County volunteer time!
ERC now has a certified ramp building team for CASA (Care Assurance System for the Aging and Homebound) – a North Alabama non-profit that provides assistance to the homebound and elderly in our community. A group of ERC employees came together for a fun – and hot – warehouse work night. We cut planks and pre-assembled various sections. Once the home site was ready, another team of volunteers from ERC and Aerie came together to build the ramp. The homeowner was so excited to leave her house in her wheelchair – what a great way to spend a Saturday morning!
ERC Huntsville volunteers, from left to right: Wally O’Steen (RWESS), Lindsey, Michele, and Clyde Wikle (HQ), Shaun Dyer (IRES) and Danny Waters (RWESS). Watch out – Lindsey Parker (HQ) is armed with a nail gun! The happy homeowner with the volunteer group – awesome day!
Employees sharing their work!
On a recent visit to our JETS contract at Johnson Space Center, Ernie had the opportunity to see first hand some of the cool lab work taking place:
Ernie with Jason Pond at the vacuum chamber. Ernie and Dr. Simon Clemett in the Laser spectrometer lab.
It is amazing to see the various areas where our ERC employees work!
Supporting the Boys & Girls Club
ERC has been a long-time supporter of the Boys and Girls Clubs at several of our locations. This year, the North Alabama Chapter featured a dinner with famed Auburn and NBA star, Charles Barkley. ERC was represented well at the event, including some one-on-one time with Sir Charles!
