This past weekend an energetic team of SWR’s pacesetters competed in the HCCA’s Clay Pigeon Shoot Tournament. Pictured below from left to right; Jesse Fansler, Eddie Putnam, Kevin Bean, Josh Allen and Nick Putnam went toe to toe with some of the best shooters in the area. Thank you to Shady Grove Sporting Clays and the HCCA for providing a fantastic opportunity for our team to compete.
On March 31, 2023 three Aces retired from the S.W. Rodgers Company. Barry McClenahen (38 years), Allen “Mo” Grigsby (29 years) and Robert Parker Jr. (28 years) enjoyed lunch with fellow peers to celebrate their combined 95 years of service. Thank you all for sharing your expertise, wisdom and sense of humor with all of us. You have been pillars of this company and your impressive careers are an inspiration to many. Enjoy your retirement — you’ve earned it! Here’s to many happy golden years!
Springing into action (pun intended) with one of our newest fleet upgrades. Pictured below is one of our new Mack Granite series quad trucks delivering topsoil to a community service project in Manassas, VA. It is going to be a colorful spring around here with these stunning trucks hitting the road. Where toughness meets productivity and style. Happy Spring to all of our hardworking construction family.
This week the S.W. Rodgers Company hosted the HCCA’s New Member Breakfast. Current leaders of the industry and new members were acquainted and learned about all of the opportunities that the HCCA provides for industry involvement. Twelve companies have joined the HCCA since January 1. The Heavy Construction Contractors Association, currently lead by HCCA President T.J. Rodgers, is a growing asset of the heavy construction industry.
At the S.W. Rodgers Company we continue to lead the industry with our machine control technology. Last week our field operators and foreman stayed at the top of their game with some continuing education of our equipment advancements. Maximizing the equipment efficiencies of laser and GPS machine control helps drive our performance.
The S.W. Rodgers Company strives to run the freshest equipment fleet in northern Virginia. After months of equipment backorders a few new pieces are being deployed. Our rigorous maintenance program has helped keep us at the forefront of production capabilities. On the trailer is one of Caterpillar’s newly numbered D4 dozers which has taken the place of the older D6 models. Soon to hit the subgrade is a new Caterpillar 120 motor grader. What project can we do for you this year?
