Torch Award

Last night Kennon Products was among the 12 companies honored by the
Better Business Bureau of Northern Colorado and Wyoming at their
annual Torch Awards Dinner.  Torch Awards are given to businesses that
best exemplify the highest standards of business ethics in how they
interact with customers, employees and their community.  There were
about 500 people in attendance and it truly was a well produced event
with a variety of entertainers, video production, and an excellent
reception and dinner.

The top award in our category ( 25 to 100 employees) was presented to
Drahota, a Fort Collins construction firm. Their story is inspiring as
were so many told throughout the evening.  During the downturn in the
economy, instead of reducing their workforce Drahota sent their
workers into the community to do home repairs for the elderly.  They
have a wellness program for their employees and provide loaner
bicycles. They have raised thousands of dollars in special events such
as Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society.

We congratulate Drahota, the winners in the other three categories and
all of the finalists.  It truly was an inspiring evening. We are proud
to be among the those honored for trust and ethics and motivated by
the many wonderful stories  to try even harder.
