SPIKE CLUB APPRECIATION

A

t the heart of every Spike is the spirit of a champion. Like a champion athlete, a Spike strives to achieve his or her personal best with a relentless determination that defies all odds. The greater the challenge, the more a Spike is spurred on to success. Spikes can be competitors, and Spike can be victors, yet they are always allies in the quest to make our association bigger and better. A Spike is essentially one who recruits and retains HBA members. A huge “Thank You” to all our Spikes for striving to keep the HBA of Northern Kentucky strong.

What’s New with Pella

Pella Impervia Dual-Color Option NOW AVAILABLE! Neither wind nor rain nor sleet or snow stops determined mail carriers. Nor do those elements and other climate extremes phase Pella Corporation’s energy-efficient Pella Impervia line, expanding in the Summer of 2011 to include White interior option for all units.

Pella Impervia windows and patio doors offer more style and design flexibility for your customers. With the new dual-color option, Pella Impervia products can have a White interior with the choice of White, Tan or Brown exterior.

Pella Impervia windows and patio doors arrive pre-finished with a powder-coat paint finish on both interior and exterior. This durable finish stays looking great for years with little care.

“We’re pleased to offer more innovative solutions to builders and homeowners living in areas where a stronger, more durable window is a must,” said Duane Putz, director of sales and marketing for Pella Impervia. “This product is made for hot, cold, wet or windy climates and now it’s available in more styles.”

Pella Impervia can withstand the forces of Mother Nature without cracking, shrinking or warping in extreme weather conditions. The sleek-profiled innovative products made from Duracast®, the strongest most durable material in windows and doors, are virtually maintenancefree and well-suited to today’s busy lifestyles and balanced budgets for home and business owners.* Builders, remodelers and homeowners may choose from convenient factory prefinished brown, white or tan color options and now have a White interior!

For more information, please contact your local Pella representative or call 513-936-5240.

Rethink Construction: EPSC Site Compliance

Monday, Dec. 10, 2012 8 a.m. - 3 p.m.

Join us for SD1’s Annual Contractor/Developer Workshop. At this year’s workshop, we will explore new erosion prevention and sediment control (EPSC) technologies as well as revisit maintenance requirements of many common EPSC best management practices (BMPs). Additionally, we will review storm water pollution prevention plans (SWPPPs) and the type of information required for a complete SWPPP. Complete SWPPPs and properly installed and maintained BMPs are essential to protect water quality and maintain compliance with local, state and federal sediment and erosion control regulations.

Who should attend?

Site designers, developers, contractors and onsite EPSC representatives are encouraged to attend this workshop. The workshop will provide assistance in understanding the requirements and responsibilities of individuals responsible for the installation and ongoing maintenance of EPSC practices.

Workshop Details

When: Monday, Dec. 10 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

(Registration and breakfast is from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.)

Where: Gardens of Park Hills 1622 Dixie Hwy., Park Hills, KY Cost: $15 per person Breakfast, snacks and lunch provided (Attendees are asked to pay with cash or check at the event.)

RSVP Nov. 30, 2012 to Tracy Watson at twatson@sd1.org or 859-578-7460 *Attendees will receive 5 professional development hours.*
