Jimmy is a hard-working member of the roofing crew who is always looking to find ways to make the jobs run quickly and smoothly. And he tries very hard to keep a positive attitude and to help others in the company do the same. His co-workers say he always comes to work with a smile on his face.

That’s Josh from the roofing crew getting ready to climb the iceberg.

Watch the video below to find out about all the things Dutch Springs has to offer, including scuba diving and a ropes course.

There are fun things to do for all ages.

Mike Mazur of Coplay,

has never been on a cruise, but his wife has. He has now run out of excuses for not going along since this five-night vacation is paid for (except the air fare.) They have some time to choose where they will cruise to – as they have 18 months to use the certificate.

Thank you to those of you who participated in the contest.

If you did not win a prize in any of these drawings – you can earn similar awards simply by referring your friends, family members and neighbors to Holencik Roofing for any roofing or gutter needs.

We look forward to next year’s contest.

Sorry it took so long to get this to you, but sometimes there’s not enough hours in a day…

Stefan and I took our cruise March 10-15th on board the Carnival Paradise.

We sailed to Grand Cayman where we took a party boat out for snorkeling, partying (of course) and a long sun-filled afternoon at Seven-Mile Beach.

Our next port-of-call was Cozumel.  We have been there before, but never got to see the Mayan Ruins.  So, this time we rented a jeep and took a leisurely drive from one side to the other.  We visited the spectacular ruins and some of the less known “local” places.  We had a wonderful time.

Life gets so hectic sometimes and you cannot find enough time to do the things that need to be done.  Relaxing is at the bottom of that long list.

We are so thankful to Holencik Roofing for providing us with the trip to put “Quality Time” back at the top!

Thank you so much!

It was a little chilly and a holiday weekend, but the president, along with other members of Coplay Sports, and  Jesse Holencik and Shawn Eltz of Holencik Roofing were on hand to carry the cases into the fieldhouse/concession stand.

When we were looking for ways to give back to the community in which we operate our business, Coplay Sports seemed an obvious choice.  Through dedicated volunteers, this organization has been giving youth an opportunity to play baseball and softball in their hometown since the late 1950’s. If you want to keep up with what’s happening go to Facebook and Like Coplay Sports.

Seven Holencik Roofing employees attended training and educational sessions and got to preview new shingle choices: American Harvest, Woodland and Monaco.

Here’s Shawn Eltz looking at the Woodland sample board.

We stayed at Harrah’s on the marina. The pool area was beautiful, the buffet was delicious and the room and staff were great.  The Expo was held at Caesar’s on the boardwalk. We enjoyed an excellent breakfast and lunch provided by GAF. After the seminar it was raining, so we checked out the shops across the boardwalk.

Here is a photo of the $7 million dollar water, light and sound extravaganza which entertains visitors at The Pier Shops at Caesar’s. “The Water Show”, a six-minute multi-sensory presentation, is complimentary to the public and runs every hour on the hour.

You might not recognize the groom in the photo above, as he doesn’t dress quite so fancy for work. But, doesn’t Adam Holencik, who heads our repair crew and supervises all roofing projects at Holencik Roofing, look dashing next to his beautiful bride, Rachel (Tretiak) Holencik? You may hear Rachel’s voice when you call our office. She works a couple days a week when she is not substitute teaching for local school districts. Rachel graduated from Wilkes University in December of 2010 with a BA in History and a BA in Psychology.

Even though there was a lot of rain in the weeks preceding the wedding, October 8th was a beautiful, sunny day – perfect for the outdoor ceremony at Evergreen Lake. Their reception was held at Penn’s Peak where family and friends enjoyed a great meal, the fabulous chocolate fondue bar, and dancing with music provided by A Plus DJs.

I encourage you to try laser tag as a group or as an individual. This is a great place for a birthday party for kids of all ages.

Visit their website for hours and a video of the arena: www.palasertag.com or checkout their facebook page.

My tip: Don’t wear white and dress for a hot summer day.
