Our Volunteer Group went to the State CapitalMarch 6, 2018 Our local Senator Invited our Group to the NY State Capitol for a tour of the building. What an amazing day. This Capital building is the most expensive in the US. The inside has all hand carved moldings and marble. This building has so much history that goes with it. I will post some pictures later, But here a video of our Senator thanking us on the Senate Floor

Off season solemn donation...December 28, 2016 Two blocks from the shop is a city cemetery. From a distance I noticed older head stones so I ventured in one day to find a Confederate memorial, and head stones from every war since then. I made a call and got what appeared to the the head grave digger and offered to clean all military stones. His first reply is we can't do that. I said there is no charge, I just want to clean all military stones for free. Well, now he is listening and said for me to help myself. Here are two I started with yesterday coming back from our last job of the season. They took 20 minutes combined! I would have kept going but I had my helper with me and didn't want to take up his time since he was ok with this test cleaning. This isn't an atta boy post but one to give you all ideas of what we can do to give back. I know this is not my idea and by no means do I take any credit for such a great idea. I do take credit for cleaning Gy Sgt Lista first!

VFW Monument CleaningMay 29, 2015 Today we Cleaned the Veitnam Monument in here in Holbrook NY. One of the rule the VFW has is a member has to be there when the work gets done. Well you should have seen the look on the vets face when we got done cleaning. He was one happy camper. Guys every town has one of these that could use some cleaning. Contact your local Chamber of Commerce and ask then to put you in contact with the local VFW Rep. that controls the monument. They need help and we are the guys that can help them. I made a short video of the work
