Congratulations to Grace Eriksen, the 2023 Sherri Gust Memorial Scholarship Recipient!

As a child, Grace was always outside, covered in dirt, carrying shovels and pretending she was an explorer, a researcher, and a treasure hunter. She grew up fascinated with the hidden treasures around her and under her feet. In first grade when her classmates were setting traditional career goals like astronauts, presidents, and princesses – Grace wanted to be a paleontologist. High school history classes turned her focus to archaeology. This summer, she is working as an archaeology intern for the Yosemite Leadership Program at Yosemite National Park, where she is working with different CRM teams both in the field and in the office. After graduation Grace plans to gain experience with a job in CRM or with the Forest Service before applying to graduate school.

Happy Women in Construction Week (WICW)! Although we celebrate year-round, March 5-11th marks the 25th annual WICW held by The National Association of Women in Construction. Cogstone is proud to be a small women-owned business that values diversity, equity, and equality. Representation matters, and in a male-dominated field, 62% of our employees are women! So to all of our hard working women out there—thank you—we appreciate everything you do and are proud to have you represent Cogstone.

This year’s WICW theme is, “Many Paths, One Mission,” which celebrates the various strides women have taken to create opportunities and insure success for women in the construction industry. If you are interested in celebrating WICW outside of Cogstone, be sure to check out https://wicweek.org for details on events, resources, and further information on The National Association of Women in Construction.

Cogstone is excited to announce the launch of our new website (www.cogstone.com)!
