From the radio station to the grocery store, I encountered questions about where to find a “Parade Book” and what time do the houses open. In visiting with the builders, I heard about the typical challenges of completing their home on time, extraordinary challenges of detours and road closures and fortunately about successful contract signings! Thank you to all the builders, trades and suppliers who participated in the Spring Parade of Homes for collectively working together to make yet another successful event.
Another thanks goes out to everyone who took the time to get out and VOTE on May 5th. It is a great privilege to be able to participate in a process that allows us to voice our opinions and democratically select our leaders. HBAL looks forward to working with the new and existing members of the Lincoln City Council to make Lincoln a great place to live and work.
The Nebraska Department of Education/Nebraska Career Education staff will be recognizing HBAL on June 10th as the recipient of the Outstanding Business/Industry Partnership Award for Career Education. Lincoln Public Schools appreciates our ongoing support for its career education program and especially the support of Nadine and staff. Thank you!
Good Luck to everyone participating in the HBAL golf tournament on June 5th!
Mike
