Northwest employees have continued their philanthropic endeavor, “The Northwest Way.” Employees have the opportunity to participate by donating a payroll deduction at an amount they select. This month’s recipient is the Jefferson County Foster Children's Fund.


Proposition S projects at Cedar Springs, High Ridge, and Woodridge are continuing to go along according to schedule. The Cedar Springs project is in the midst of running electric and cables. High Ridge is still clearing some of the area for the new entryway, and Woodridge is framing their new entryway.

Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers and father figures of Northwest Lion Nation!
