GOLFING FOR A CAUSE

SWINGIN’-FOR-WISHES

On October 18th, we had the opportunity to golf and sponsor a hole at the Northern Iowa Wishmaker’s golf tournament in Cedar Falls, IA. All of the proceeds had benefited the Make-A-Wish Iowa foundation.

With our head of business development and shop techs, the Trackside team was able to help raise over $9,000 for the foundation and escape the office for one day. Our shop tech, Jacob DeBruin, even took home a canoe!

RENOVATIONS IN GEORGIA

Remodeling Our New Facility

In March 2019, Trackside’s Augusta facility grew out of its 4,500 SQ FT Wrightsboro Road facility and into their new 24,000 SQ FT facility on North Leg Court. This facility will allow for continued business growth, as well as the ability to add more qualified team members. A very special thanks goes out to the Sampson Construction team for all the hard work, long hours, and dedication it took to transform this building.

Come check out the new and improved Augusta Trackside at 1710 North Leg Court, Augusta, GA 30909.

UTILIZING THE BLUCO TABLE

ADDING ON NEW EQUIPMENT

Hard at work with Trackside’s Bluco Table! By adding this piece to our shop, we are able to maximize our productivity by eliminating the use of tape measures and the time it takes to find a flat surface to weld small items. The Bluco Table helps our welders setup low volume jobs in a more efficient manor. We are excited to see what other projects the Bluco Table can handle!
