August 2010

Three offices were each equipped with 3 wall cabinets and 4 base cabinets,
 2 of which contain file drawers, for a total of 21 cabinets. The project team
 was led by Bill Bagwell, and consisted of Bill Brett, Ron Critser, Ed Kroposki,
 Keith Rackley, Jerry Thomas, and Tom Vandiver. As can be seen by the pictures,
 the Meyer Center staff is quite pleased with the results.

November 2009

These are five "little" chairs for the Meyer Center. The original chair plan had to be completely re-drawn for a smaller chair. Darryl Roberson and son George did most of this project, with Tony Ryan cutting out the legs, and Bobby Hartness helping cut a grove in the metal slides for the foot-rest.
