Enjoying the Summer Heat

Well here it is July already and while we have had slow periods the first half of this year sure seemed to fly by quick! While last year ended with a bang due to the acquisition of another trophy shop, this year to date has marked some historic projects in Bux-Mont Awards short history as well. We finished up our part in a awe inspiring Marines monument which is being dedicated this month, and we are right in the middle of our biggest trophy job to date, the Oaklane grands.   This national quarter midget race is so big that we had to rent a factory to produce the job.  Some statistics will follow in a future post. There are 350 trophies ranging in size from six to four feet. We are happy to have this opportunity as the people at Oaklane have been extremely good to us as a customer for over ten years now. If you are in the area at the end of July you should definitely stop by to see a race!

Cast Bronze Marines Monument

We helped a great guy create a monument being dedicated this month in Quantico Virginia to his Marines brethren in " memory of our Golf 2-7 Brothers who made the supreme sacrifice and in honor of all who served Golf Company 2-7 and their country in time of need." It is being dedicated July 23 at the USMC national park. The monument almost never happened as funding was slow to materialize.  But because of the dedication and hardwork of one individual, it was able to come together and it was great to be a part of.  This was such a great story that our local newspaper, The Intelligencer decided to do a writeup on it that can be found on their website, phillyburbs.com Please look over the photos below.  The manufacturer said it was the nicest monument they ever did.  Marines employed at the bronze casting company wanted to meet the designer and said it was a job they were certainly proud of, and in our 21 years in business this is our proudest moment as well.  To help

Pennridge Wrestling Golf Outing Fundraiser

When all was said and done this was the funnest outing I've been to all year! The coaches and parents over at the pennridge wreslting club did a great job preparing for this golf outing. They had some great giveaways planned including a sleeve of balls, a commemorative coffee mug and a pack of tees. They also had some really cool etched pint glasses that were being given away as prizes for the winning foursome, longest drive and straightest drive.  While we didn't win first, our guys came home with the longest drive and it was a long one! Thanks again to the wrestling team and we are already eagerly awaiting next year!

Progress

There are a bunch of sidewalks being torn up here in Lansdale as the streetscape project Representative Schwartz  got to help revitalize the town.  Don't let that stop you from stopping by one of the great events or visiting the businesses here in town. Make Lansdale your next stop on the train to eat, and while you are here visit some of the great businesses in town.  There is also a farmers market running every Saturday this summer with many great vendors with fresh meats, eggs, fruits, fresh breads and more! It will be nice when the streetscape project is done and everyone can begin to enjoy the new sidewalks and improvements being made!

60 years is a long time to do anything

Like the title says, 60 years is a long time to do anything, but one lady made it point to pursue her passion and help teach children to dance for the last 60 years.  A woman visited our store in Lansdale recently to inquire as to whether we could provide a etched vase for a gift she was giving for her mother, who was celebrating her 60th year in teaching dance. Jane Lapoten wanted to recognize her mothers hardwork and grand achievement by giving her something personalized that she would cherish for the rest of her days.  While we could not provide her with the base she was seeking, we were able to utilize our sand etching process and made a memory. Ms. Lapoten was beyond ecstatic when she saw how nice the etching turned out and promised to provide some pictures for us soon, which we will post for you to see.  We were very happy that our customer was so happy with the finished product that was provided to her and it was neat seeing her reaction. This story and countless others
