Glidden, Iowa. What an amazing town. Glidden’s mission? “To enhance residents’ lives by providing quality services at a reasonable expense.” Caliber Concrete knows how serious the town takes this mission. An aquatic center, three major parks, a library, a trail system, and a butterfly garden. Glidden and its residents are certainly doing something right.

Oh did I mention that they also have a Medal of Honor recipient? Ralph G. Neppel received the military’s highest decoration for his actions in World War II shortly before the Battle of the Bulge.

Anyway, when we read on the 1380KCMI website that we had indeed won the bid to replace the west 6th street surface and to pour new concrete located on the western edge of town we were excited. However, we knew we couldn’t waste much time. While the project was active a dozen or so homes were going to be inaccessible by vehicle. 

We would like to give a special thanks to those homeowners who were affected by the street improvements. You showed tremendous patience.

Stay you, Glidden.
