PCW Shows Gratitude Through URIMPORTANT

You may have seen some photos on our Facebook and Instagram page focused on URIMPORTANT. 

So, what’s this all about? It’s pretty simple. 

Our owner, Todd Morrison, wanted to find a way to show gratitude to folks who have and are doing great things in our community. So, he had shirts made that say #URIMPORTANT. 

Whenever Todd runs into someone doing great things, he personally gives them a shirt and shares it with everyone so that other people are aware of all of the great human beings we’re lucky to have around us. 

It’s also Todd’s special way of showing these people how important they are to him both personally and professionally. 

But, it hasn’t just stayed local! He had the pleasure of sending eight shirts to some amazing people in India! 

Today, Todd would love to extend an invitation to you.  

Do you know of someone doing great things? 

If so, PCW would love to hear their story. Please feel free to share this with others too. We’re firm believers that expressing gratitude is essential, and we want to give back in whatever way we can to good human beings! 

PCW Teams Up With Brush Creek Elementary School For Career Day

At PCW we love what we do, and we also love our families and community!

So, we partnered with Brush Creek Elementary School for Career Day to show students what we do and our passion for operating a business in this amazing community.

PCW owner, Todd Morrison, took three fifth grader kiddos, including his stepdaughter Scarlett, on a little journey to show them what our team does.

It was such a fantastic day! Here are some of the highlights..

We started at the PCW office and shared with the kids how we come up with ideas for homes and commercial projects, the very important role of Architecture and Engineering, introduced them to our Office Manager, Tracy, to hear more about finances and talked about costs and billing.

We loved that during this part of the day, we were able to provide education on ‘real world’ topics that will help these children in the future.

From the office, we headed to the Hay Meadow project site. Here we talked about the differences between a non-disturbed lot vs. a “grubbed” site and how we remove things like grass and topsoil.

It kind of felt like a mini geology lesson mixed with construction processes, and the kids seemed to really enjoy it!

Our group moved on to Lime Park in Eagle Ranch where we chatted about the excavation process and structural framing. The kids had the chance to learn how to determine different “ply” for engineered trusses and girder trusses, and it was so great to see them enjoy this exercise!

PCW career day eagle coOne of the student’s dads, who is a Hoe Operator, also talked with the kids about his role in the process. This really illustrated to the kids what how important teamwork is – another life skill that we think is super valuable.

One of the best parts of the day was that there was a lot of showing versus just talking. The kids had a chance to see another PCW project on East Haystacker. Here, we talked about electric and plumbing. The kids were amazed at how simple things like lights in a home are actually pretty complex.

The last stop on our agenda was a property at 2727 E. Haystacker. Here we talked about all of the final finishes – window trim, interior masonry, cabinetry, and doors. We had the kids do an ‘inspection’ of the property, which really brought to light how much they learned throughout the day.

A wonderful day like this wouldn’t be complete without a nice lunch, so we took everyone to Asian Fusion where we enjoyed some delicious food and Japanese sodas.

Who knows.. maybe one of these students will open a successful construction company here in the Valley in the next decade!

It was such an honor to be able to share our passion with students in our community, so we’re beyond grateful that we had the opportunity to participate in Career Day.

Join Us For The 2019 Brush Creek Elementary Biathlon On June 10

It’s that time of year…

The Brush Creek Elementary Biathlon is taking place on Monday, June 10 at 9:30am!

We wanted to invite everyone to come out for the exciting event, since it’s huge community tradition and the kiddos would love our support.

You might remember us talking about this event last year and the amazing woman behind it: Shelli Fullhart – the PE teacher at Brush Creek Elementary School

Here’s some background on how this event got started..,.

Shelli saw that there were some challenges for fifth graders transitioning from elementary to middle school, and came up with this excellent solution.

“It’s sometimes hard for kids to move into middle school. The transition involves new routines, new classmates, and being in an entirely new environment. To give the kids a self-esteem boost, I created the Biathlon. It really helps them realize how awesome they are and that middle school is not anything to be scared of, but rather an exciting new journey,” shared Shelli.

All fifth graders participate in this event, which entails a ½ mile run, a 3-mile bike ride, and another ½ mile run. This year there will be 88 kids participating, and to ensure everyone can participate, Shelli will actually buy bikes for kids who don’t have one!

The positive impact that this event has had, along with Shelli’s innate caring, nurturing and encouraging nature, is evident in the fact that kids have come back to her years later to thank her for her inspiration and to let her know the positive impact she’s had on their lives.

We hope to see you on June 10!

Community Spotlight: Lenka’s Place

Lenka's Place

 

As you know, we love sharing stories about amazing people doing great things in our community. So, today, we wanted to introduce you to Lenka – owner of Lenka’s Place.

Lenka has a beautiful story about her journey to Vail Valley and creating a unique business that gives valuable life enrichment to members of the community (and those who visit)!

Starting at a young age, Lenka showed that she was full of endless creativity and talent when it came to painting. At the age of 14, she was selected to attend a four-year art school program that specialized in graphic design and other art skills.

After completing the program, she successfully completed the entrance exams for teaching art and was chosen to attend a university where she concentrated on teaching art to high school and college students.

While in attendance, she partnered with an Art Gallery in Pilsen, Czech Republic to develop a specific educational program that focused on the interactive interpretation of art pieces, the channeling of emotions through art, learning to relate to artists’ work and creating your own masterpiece using inspiration from the artist/exhibit.

She also received her Master’s Degree in Art and taught at a graphics school full-time before deciding to carry her passion for teaching to the United States.

Today, she teaches at Colorado Mountain College in Edwards and operates her business, which includes:

  • Private art lessons
  • Interactive projects for kids birthday parties
  • Canvas and cocktails in hotel settings
  • 3-6 week classes focusing on a specific topic of art
  • Art classes for talented kids
  • Step-by-step painting classes in her studio in Eagle, the comfort of your home, for business parties, bridal showers, baby showers and birthday parties
  • Kids art camp
  • Art classes for talented kids
  • Intermediate level class for ages 6-14 who are looking to advance their established drawing skills

Lenka’s love for teaching others and passion for the arts is evident in everything she does! And, she does an amazing job not only at broadening her student’s perspectives about art, but also about life in general.

If you’ve been thinking about taking an art class (or signing your child up for one), we would highly recommend getting in touch with Lenka.

Her experience, expertise and teaching style are to the likes of something you’d find in a large Metropolitan city like New York, so we are beyond grateful that she’s right here in our community!

You can learn more about Lenka and her classes by visiting her Facebook page!
