A Big Thank You
     The time has come once again to stop and recognize some individuals who are making our latest project in Old Town a reality.  In its first year, the Pavilion has become a very popular hot spot for community events and public gatherings.  We felt the addition of permanent restrooms was key and would really enhance the space.  The Building Contractors Association of Southeast Idaho stepped up to take on the project in its entirety.  We want to sincerely thank all of the volunteers and sponsors who have so generously contributed both their time and resources to build a permanent restroom and storage structure at the Pavilion.  This will serve our community well. 
    We would especially like to extend our gratitude to Jeff Butler of Butler Builders and Dustin Morrison of American Dream Homes for managing the project.  Thank you to all the contributors who have helped in the project: ABC Seamless Siding, Al Tetz BCASEI, B&G Plumbing, BCASEI Student Chapter, Bannock Civitans, Castle Concrete, City of Pocatello, D&S Electric, Economy Heating & Air, J&L England Masonry, Ferguson Enterprises, Four J's Inc., Roto Rooter, Franklin Building Supply, Hansen Janitorial Supply, Idaho Wholesale Hardware, Idaho Power Company, Intermountain Gas Company, Larsen Electric LLC, Liddil Paving, Lowe's, Masonry Center, Molinelli's Jewelers, Myers Anderson Architect, Out to Lunch Catering, Pocatello Ready Mix, Pro Rentals, Qwest Communications, Rocky Mountain Supply, Ron Dykman Construction, Steel West, Two Brothers Concrete Supply, U-R-D Boss Contracting LLC, Warbonnet Electric, Western Wholesale Supply, and Wilson Roofing.  When you see these folks, let them know how much you appreciate their volunteer efforts by supporting their businesses!
