The Best Seats
In The House

Having a strong partnership with the Anglophone East School District on Canada’s East Coast, our team was once again called upon for another necessary but unique project. The school, established in 1981, is comprised of both a middle school (Salisbury Middle School) and a high school (JMA Armstrong High School).

Given the fact that the school is, in fact, two schools under one roof, the gymnasium is obviously a busy place. Serving as home for Cougar athletics, sports programming is a large part of student life at JMA Armstrong.

As with many retractable bleacher upgrades that our team is involved with, the school had a set of retractable bleachers previously installed that were unfortunately dated and deemed no longer safe. As building codes continue to be updated across Canada and the United States, many of these older wooden systems are in need of replacement and we were once again, happy to answer the call.

Taking pride in their heritage, language and culture, the community operates a number of programs and services including an elementary school, daycare, after school and summer school programming, community health and education services, economic development, lands and natural resource management and housing and administrative services.

If you’ve been following us over the past few months,you know that a select number of our team members were lucky enough to spend some time on the beautiful island of Barbados this winter.

While it certainly wasn’t a typical visit filled with island-themed libations and hammocks strung between palm trees, it was an experience our organization won’t soon forget. While the warm weather and palm trees were awelcome addition to the project, the hard work started many months ago when we were approached by the Barbados Football Association and key stakeholders at FIFA.

The planning process was intense as anyone would expect and one that wouldn’t be complete without a multitude of moving parts. Towards the end of 2017, all of the necessary parts and plans came together and the project was officially underway.

In the fall of 2017 we proudly announced an exciting project that had been in the planning process for a number of years. Working in conjunction with FIFA and our esteemed colleagues at the Barbados Football Association, the project was slated to get underway during the winter months.

As the details were confirmed through correspondence, it was soon time to have boots on the ground of the small island nation. As the necessary materials began arriving in Barbados to build the bleacher seating that would soon flank the sidelines of this exciting stadium, so too did our experienced installation crews.

Founded in 1972 under another name, what is now known as Omaha Christian Academy began by serving 30 elementary school students with a faculty of only four teachers. Changing to its current name in 1988 and transferring to the former General Motors training facility three years later, the Academy then occupied two other spaces before settling into its permanent location.

In 2009, classes kicked off in the academy’s current location after a $1.7 million capital campaign and after many years of growth.

Today, Omaha Christian Academy services students from pre-kindergarten all the way up to high school, preparing the next generation for post-secondary education and beyond into their professional lives. In addition to educational excellence, the school is also home to a robust athletics program which includes teams in sports such as football, cheerleading, volleyball, basketball, soccer, baseball and more.

Leading us across the expanse of the United States, one of our latest projects once again landed us in sunny California.

After completing work with Columbia College in Sonora, we were also contacted by an individual who had come across our products while searching online.  Browsing across multiple sites and suppliers, we were eventually directly contacted by the client who mentioned they were impressed with the quality of our products. While admitting that we were not necessarily the cheapest product on the market, we did, in their opinion, seem to have the highest-quality products.

Named after the World War II Royal Navy cruiser the HMS Ajax, the town of Ajax, Ontario lies along the shores of Lake Ontario. Acting as an anchor for the eastern portion of the Greater Toronto Area, many of the area’s residents commute daily to the great City of Toronto.

In the spring of 2017, the Town of Ajax released a public tender to equip their new sport field at the Audley Recreation Centre. Located in the north end of town, the complex is one of the main hubs for community sports in Ajax. The centre boasts two swimming pools, a full-size gymnasium, community room with teaching kitchen, preschool room and a fitness and dance studio. Moving outdoors, Ajax residents enjoy the centre’s splash pad, skate park, tennis courts, basketball courts and inclusive playground space.

Located smack dab in the middle of the Keystone State is Juniata County and home to Juniata High School. Serving as home to the Indians, the school’s athletic programming is handled by Athletic Director Joe Skura and includes teams representing the school in cheerleading, baseball, basketball, soccer, football, tennis, track and field, wrestling and more.

Working with our partners at School Installers of Pennsylvania (SIPA), this exciting project was presented to us for evaluation. Given SIPA’s affiliation with the Co-Stars Purchasing Plan in Pennsylvania, SIPA was involved from an early stage in the development of this project.

In a project that has been many years in the making, we are proud to announce our joint partnership with FIFA, the Barbados Football Association (BFA), C.O. Williams Construction and Musco Lighting.

The strategic partnership was formed to complete the upgrades to the BFA’s Wildey AstroTurf facility that will give it a completely new look.

Established in 1910, the BFA organizes, promotes and regulates football (soccer) activity on the island of Barbados, catering to over 17,000 players island-wide. Affiliated with the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) since 1968, the BFA’s 21-member management team has been working diligently to move this project forward, despite delays.

Nestled along the Gaspé Peninsula in eastern Quebec lies the town of Matane.  Bordered by the eastern province of New Brunswick, this picturesque area of Quebec runs along the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River. 

The area was once a haven for fisheries, forestry and agriculture but has since become a tourist destination, attracting visitors from around the world. Home to a number of National Parks, the peninsula is an eco-tourist’s dream and is offers a unique opportunity to spot whales from within the province of Quebec.

One of our more recent projects gave us the opportunity to work in this unique landscape as we were awarded a tendered contract to provide Cégep de Matane with a new bank of telescopic bleachers. Providing students in the region with a pre-university and technical college, the school’s programming gives students the skills needed to continue in post-secondary education.
