SteelMaster Gives Thanks This Holiday Season through Website Series


Virginia Beach, VA-November 24, 2009-Holidays are commas interspersed throughout the writing of the American tale-moments when society collectively takes a moment to pause, reflect, and regroup before moving forward. This Thanksgiving SteelMaster Buildings is pausing to give thanks to some very special people by showcasing their stories of bravery, loyalty, sacrifice, and resolve in the four-week series "Stories of Service: SteelMaster Gives Thanks", which will be hosted on its website www.SteelMasterUSA.com.

From December 2 -21, SteelMaster will highlight employees who have either served in the U.S. military, like Project Specialist Robert "Dag" D'Agostino, a 20-year veteran of the Navy's elite SEAL commandos, as well as others who come from military families-including Project Specialist Daniel Howard, whose father recently retired from the Navy after 40 years of service and whose uncle, a New York Port Authority police officer, who was a victim of the 9/11 attacks.

"We are thankful for every member of our SteelMaster family as well as all of our customers who believe in the quality of our buildings," says Michelle Wickum, the director of marketing for SteelMaster, a manufacturer of premium steel arch buildings, which is headquartered in Virginia Beach, VA. "Because we are located near several U.S. military bases, we are privileged to work with people who have exceptional histories of service to our country. As an expression of gratitude to them and their families, we are sharing their stories with the SteelMaster community through our website."

The series will focus on ten employees, all of whom embody the fundamental ideals and principles that SteelMaster strives to uphold in every aspect of its operations-honesty, integrity, loyalty, hard work, and resolve.

"The only way to be the best in our business is to hire the best people, and we've done that at SteelMaster," says Wickum. "As a company, we are proud to represent the best that United States has to offer, which includes our people, prices, and products."
