WELCOME to Chuck Hardt, who joined<br />

Kahler Automation in October as our new Mechanical Assembler. Glad to<br />

have you aboard! WAY TO GO to the Kahler employees who attended a Kinship<br />

“lunch & learn” event; several volunteered to help improve the lives of<br />

area youth by becoming mentors. And WOO-HOO! to our “Bison Committee”<br />

for organizing a couple of tasty events — the production floor was opened up<br />

for a “fiesta lunch” with walking tacos, a piñata, and yard games; and an “apple<br />

day” where folks shared their favorite pies, crisps, and cider, plus buckets<br />

of apples from Jim Droegemueller’s orchard.<br />
