Earlier this month members of our Sales, Client Service, Accounting and Operations team joined our President; Jackie Polk, CTP, for the Lufkin/Angelina County Chamber of Commerce’s quarterly Women’s Networking Luncheon. This event encourages women to empower one another in their personal and professional growth, give access to incredible speakers and engage in thought-provoking sessions geared to personal development that can be felt at home and at the office. We are honored to participate and enjoyed camaraderie and fellowship with some of our leadership team!

Congratulations Gary Amoe for being our October Clean Desk Award recipient! From our President, Jackie Polk, CTP:

Tucked away beside the server room, Gary keeps his workspace neat and organized behind his many computer screens. With just a few personal touches, his office reflects both professionalism and personality—setting a great example for us all.

Indigenous People Day

Today, on Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor the heritage, resilience, and lasting contributions of Native communities. The words of the Dakota Tribe remind us, “We will be known forever by the tracks we leave.” In trucking and in life, every mile and every choice leaves an impact—let’s continue to make ours one of safety, responsibility, and respect.

Please join us in congratulating Francey Beall for winning the YETI cooler from our booth at the Southwest Movers Association Annual Conference last month!
