During the Annual Summer Picnic,
the prestigious Dan Dibble Award is presented to a deserving client,
who is nominated by their peers. Dan worked for Columbia Industries for
13 years, passing away in 1995. Dan was a hard worker who was very nice
to everyone he met and he tried to do his best on any job that was asked
of him. The award is given based on four characteristics: team player,
positive attitude, reliability, and quality of work.
Tenure awards for every five years of service with Columbia Industries
are also presented. To date, our most tenured clients have been with
us for over 40 years!
And of course, every client receives a thank you gift. It’s also a
time for our clients to celebrate their successes and share stories
with others. There’s also plenty of fun…games, karaoke, and a dunking
machine — where senior staff and board members get really wet!
Even before the summer picnic is over, clients look forward to the Holiday
Dinner in December. Staff and board members put on a huge
turkey meal, complete with all the trimmings. There’s lots of fun…and
even a guest appearance by Santa!
