As we get closer to the new year we would like to take a moment to thank a few of our GK employees that go above and beyond to not only make GK a better place but the community. Though all of our employees are cause for recognition we would like to applaud those who have made an impression through the community in 2017.
Julie Snave
From food drives to fun runs and more, Julie has been a driving force at General Kinematics for getting others involved. When there is an upcoming event that needs participants you can count on seeing posters, emails, and flyers all around GK due to Julie’s wonderful inclusive spirit.
Randy Smith
Randy volunteers at grade schools, teaching students about S.T.E.M. fields. Randy has an incredible wealth of knowledge he is incredibly generous with. Always ready to teach, Randy also teaches maintenance departments how to better maintain and understand their equipment.
Nikki Sullivan
Nikki has done some amazing work that has taken her all the way to the International Space Station! Working with Coed Venturing crew 209 and Boy Scouts of America Troop 209 in Palatine Nikki participated as one of the adult advisors for Our Team Ames for Space a group of kids working together to send an experiment to space. To learn more about the experiment check out the blog post!
Geoff Jenkins
Has been a huge asset to the Crystal Lake Community as a Community activist. Geoff is an active member of the Community Action Team at GK and has helped a local band named Pots and Pans by welding some of their musical instruments.
We want to say a big Thank You to all of you for being great members of the community and donating so much of your time, effort, and money to making the world around you a better place. Thank you to all of our fellow GK employees for making GK such a fantastic place to work.
