ASM members making news

Congratulations to the following members for their recent "news-making" achievements: * Paul Palumbo of Kaplan Career Institute was awarded the "Golden Hammer" award from Habitat for Humanity at their annual luncheon on October 10. A licensed electrician, Paul is the program chair of Kaplan's Electrician Program and was instrumental in setting up a program where his Kaplan students now provide electrical services to Habitat homes, at no cost, saving thousands of dollars in the construction of the new homes. * ASM board member, Sue Mailman of Coghlin Electrical Contractors (Worcester) and long-time ASM member Nancy Salter of Front Line Inc. (Hopedale), were both recently named to the Boston Business Journal's first list of 100 Top Women-led Businesses. They will be honored at a dinner on Dec. 8. * This year eight ASM members appeared in Engineering News Record's (ENR) list of "Top 600 Specialty Contractors" nationwide in 2010. Congratulations to them all: Siemens Industries, Wayne J. Griffin Electric, Inc., JC Cannistraro LLC, S & F Concrete Contractors, Karas & Karas Glass Co., Inc., and Central Ceilings.
