The Work Safe Harbor of Chester County Does Every Day.

When the Chester County Single Homeless Women's Task Force was formed in 2007, they went looking for options for single women experiencing homelessness in the county. They found one. Safe Harbor. Four beds. What followed was an expansion that changed what was possible for the most vulnerable women in our community, and Safe Harbor has been showing up every day since, sustained by donations, volunteers, and a community that refuses to let their doors close.

Vegas, Big Iron, and Bigger Lessons: Lyons & Hohl at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026

This past March, we took 12 members of our team to Las Vegas for CONEXPO-CON/AGG, the largest construction trade show in North America. For most of them, it was their first expo ever. What brought us there went beyond the equipment. Our brand-new fuel and lube truck, built by Summit Truck Bodies, was on display on the show floor. From there, the week only got better. Educational sessions, a reception at the Wynn, a trip inside the Hoover Dam, and more big iron than you can take in a single day. Here's a look at the week.
