It Was One For The Record Books
Kevin Westry
Pressure Washer Supervisor
M&T Bank Stadium
December 18, 2009
Chimes employed over 1,000 able bodies in order to fulfill their contractual obligation to the stadium, and stadium personnel arranged for 150 prisoners from the penal correction system to help aid in the effort.
Snow was shoveled from the top of the stadium down to the bowl area and from there was taken out by trucks. Two hundred twenty thousand pounds of snow was removed and by game time the view of the stadium from above showed no signs of snow whatsoever. The stadium looked great and even broadcasters were commenting with wonder at how the stadium had been transformed.
Kudos and congratulations to the following Chimes Stadium Team: Kerry Banks, Dan Joyner, Michael Porsche, Sharon Prado, Kenny Davis, Curt Salter, Imoh Matthews, Orrick Jones, Karen Gonsman, and Kimberly Vecchioni. A special thank you to Kevin Westry, the pressure washer supervisor, who worked 38 straight hours! Without their tireless commitment to getting the job done, the stadium would not have looked as pristine as it did on game day.
What a way to end the last home game!
