HOLD ‘EM & HIT ‘EM COOKOFF The Houston Office held an appreciation event for our subcontractors, clients and designers on Friday, January 16th at the Hold ‘Em & Hit ‘Em Cookoff. Our Senior PM, Glenn Jarrett and his wife Diane, were the amazing cooks; serving us BBQ-ing pulled pork sliders, brisket, chicken, ribs, and jalapeño poppers. Everyone there could not get enough of the food and only sang praises. Many, many THANK YOU’s to the Jarrett’s for all of their hard work. We had a tremendous turn-out with over 100 subcontractors, clients, and designers and around 50 of our Teal family.

Through this event we have built a stronger relationship with our subcontractors and have already been provided with more leads for 2015.

Thank you to everyone that helped put this together, especially Mark Baumguard, Ernesto Castro, Alex Hotze, Marcelino Perez, and Bill Shultz for setting up and helping construct our area. AND Thank you to Jerry Stafford for being such and amazing sous chef.

“The Crymar Team and I had a great time at the cook off and Teal Appreciation event last Friday.
