Jim Rice
July 30, 2009
Chicopee Industrial Contractors, CIC, would like to offer congratulations to Jim Rice, from the Boston Red Sox on his induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Quiet, reserved and the quintessential power man
“It’s like being welcomed at home plate after hitting a walk-off home run,” Rice said, “I cannot think of anywhere I’d rather be than right here, right now.”
On Monday, the Red Sox gave Rice the ultimate salute of retiring his number 14. Rice becomes the seventh Red Sox player to have his number retired. He joins the likes of Bobby Doerr, Joe Cronin, Johnny Pesky, Carl Yastrzemski, Ted Williams and Carlton Fisk. Not bad company to be in.
Cal Denson was CIC’s Jim Rice. Quiet and reserved and the ultimate power man. Each year an employee is honored with the “Cal Denson Silver Hard Hat Award.” This recognizes the employee who best exemplifies Cal’s spirit and dedication through outstanding effort. The list of past winners reads like the CIC Hall of Fame…
• Cal Denson
• Bill Tyburski
• Gina Hawk
• Larry Scarbrough
• Skip Young
• Tom Canady
• Ron Cote
Other then Cal all of the above past winners are still employed at CIC. It is that dedication to the trade and the company that pays off in our performance. The above list brings nearly 150 years of experience to work with them everyday. This experience shows in everything that we do and the quality we strive to achieve.
Let our Hall of Fame come and work for you.
