Last week, K-Five was humbly honored at the Illinois Road & Transportation Builders Association’s (IRTBA) 82nd Annual Meeting with three great awards:


DuPage County Department of Transportation bestowed upon us their Contractor of the Year Award for the South Region Resurfacing Program and improvement of approximately 40 lane-miles of roadway, which included several logistical challenges.


The Illinois Tollway honored K-Five with a Special Recognition Award for the rehabilitation and widening of the Tri-State Tollway (I-294) near the Cermak Toll Plaza in the Elmhurst/Hillside area.


IRTBA bestowed posthumously its top honor -- the Friend of the Industry award -- to our incredible leader and founder, George Krug, for his legendary contributions to IRTBA's advocacy efforts and decades of dedicated service and leadership to the Association.


We are grateful to do such important work in Chicagoland, but even more grateful to have such an incredible team here who works so hard to get the job done right!

The JDRF OneWalk in Orland Park on Sunday was our second team philanthropic event... and with your help, we raised over $30,000! The weather was perfect, our team was upbeat and radiant in our safety-vest orange, and we raised a phenomenal amount of money.
 
We are so grateful for all those who donated and attended the walk. What a powerful way to show how our K-Five family rallies together to help our community! What an impact we will have on this terrible disease! The work JDRF does will ultimately help eradicate Type 1 Diabetes, and make our world a healthier place. We are proud to be part of this incredible charity.
