Today we recognize the valuable contributions of our interns and their role in shaping Kalkreuth’s future. We are thrilled to have such a talented and ambitious group of interns with us this summer, and we want to take this opportunity to appreciate their hard work.

Internships are not merely temporary positions but a pivotal phase in an individual’s career journey. As we provide our interns with meaningful experiences and mentorship, we shape tomorrow’s leaders and invest in our company’s future. Each intern brings fresh perspectives, enthusiasm, and a thirst for learning, significantly impacting our day-to-day operations.

Lastly, thank you to our entire team for supporting our interns, guiding them, and making them feel like an integral part of our Kalkreuth family. Your mentorship and encouragement make a significant difference in their journey, and we are grateful for your contributions.

Check out what some of our interns had to say about their time with Kalkreuth and East Coast!

This month, we’re featuring two foremen from our Kentucky division – Andre Philpot and Jeremy Calder. This dynamic duo has been working on the UPS 747-8F Maintenance Hangar project in Louisville, Kentucky, which is going very well, according to them. They’re working with a good group of men who stay motivated to meet projected deadlines.

Andre began working for KRSM in April 2013, and his first project was the Jenny Wiley Amphitheatre with Project Manager Stephen Coyle. With just under 30 years of experience, Andre’s most memorable projects have been Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky, the Andrew J Brady Music Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, and the Grissom Air Reserve Base in North Central Indiana.

“I’ve worked here longer than any place. I love that the PMs listen to my opinions and trust me to run it.”

Andre lives in Berea, Kentucky, and has four kids, four grandchildren, two dogs, and a goat named Darryl. In his spare time, Andre likes to get in a good workout and share funny videos with his friends.

Jeremy began working for KRSM in September 2017, and his first project was Rupp Arena with Project Manager Chase Cupryk. With 13 years of experience, Jeremy’s most memorable projects have been the Andrew J Brady Music Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky, and App Harvest in Richmond, Kentucky.

“I have enjoyed working for the Lexington, KY Division. KRSM has given me opportunities for advancement and success.”

Jeremy lives in Richmond, Kentucky, and has two kids. When he’s not on job sites, Jeremy is the president of a nonprofit.

“I enjoy volunteering and helping others!”

On June 27th, some corporate office members had the pleasure of attending a Business After Hours event at The Health Plan. They teamed up with the Wheeling Area Chamber to create an enjoyable evening of food, fun, and networking. We want to give a shoutout to The Pine Room Podcast for introducing their new brew, The Pine Room Lager. We were delighted to be among the first to taste it!

June’s MORE Award recipient is Travis Snyder! Seth Abraham nominated Travis for MORE Effort and Cooperation.

“Travis spent the majority of the year working on a project in Knoxville, TN. He spent numerous weekends providing safety oversight so that our crews could complete the work and stay on schedule.”

Thank you, Travis, for your ongoing commitment to ensuring the safety of our team members!
