Ready, Set, Go

On Saturday June 25th the annual Super Kids Soap Box Derby Race for special needs children will be held in Sharpsville, PA.  This year DALKO is honored to be a car sponsor for the race. For the race, each child is partnered with an experienced soap box derby driver and they race down the hill against each other in a bracketed format.  Every child participating will receive a gift bag and participation award.  The champion racer will advance to the Annual National Super Kids Soap Box Derby race held in Akron, OH.  Even though it is an official race the organization tries to keep it fun and focus the entire day on providing the children with a memorable experience.  For more information on the organization and their events please visit their website, www.greaterpasuperkids.com.

Employee Spotlight: Carl Keck

Carl Keck joined the DALKO maintenance department August 26, 2013.  Before becoming part of the DALKO family he was self-employed, owner of Sharpsville Plumbing.

Carl grew up in Sharon, PA then served in the Marine Corps from 1994-1998.  He is married to his high school sweetheart, Mandee, who works for a non-profit company helping mentally handicapped adults.  Carl and Mandee have two children who attend Sharpsville High School, daughter Kailynne who is 17 years old and son Donny who is 15 years old.  Two other members the family are Rooney and Mia, the family’s two pugs.

Carl has a diverse list of hobbies including golfing, hunting, and riding motorcycles and four-wheelers.  However the most surprising is karaoke, which the DALKO team got to witness at the last DALKO Christmas party.  He is also a fan of who else but the Pittsburgh…well all of them the Steelers, Pirates and Penguins.
