Whitlock

Nothing like waffles, bacon, and a little friendly competition to kick off the new school year! ☕🧇

Our team had fun turning submitted senior photos and questionnaire answers into a guessing game, complete with prizes for the winner.

Great morning, great team, great way to start the school year.

A few weeks have passed, and we're still feeling the warmth from April 28th.

What started as a ribbon cutting with the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce turned into a full day of celebration, and we are still smiling about it.

The morning marked more than a new office. It represented a new chapter for Whitlock. Our new space and rebrand reflect who we are and where we're headed, honoring a legacy that dates back to 1913 while embracing a human hands, modern tools approach to the future. We are proud of what has made Whitlock special for over a century, and we are equally excited about what lies ahead.

That afternoon, we opened our doors for an Open House, and it was the perfect way to close out the day. Clients, colleagues, and community members who have supported us, challenged us, and grown alongside us filled our new space with exactly the kind of energy that reminds us why relationships are at the heart of everything we do. Every person who walked through that door has played a part in our story, and celebrating with them made this moment complete. The team at Hired Hostess took care of every detail beautifully, from the branded napkins and custom ice cubes to the cookies, and it showed.

Thank you to the Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce and to our sponsors Midwest Family Springfield and Brightspeed for their support.

Thank you to Aaron Clark Photo & Video for capturing every moment so beautifully.

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who came out. You are the reason this milestone matters. We are proud to call Springfield home and cannot wait to see what this next chapter holds.

📍 New space. Fresh look. Same Whitlock.
