THE DAVEY BULLETIN
ANOTHER DAY AT DAVEY MEANS...
In every issue of The Bulletin I try
to encapsulate and summarize the
issue highlights in these Root of the
Issue columns. Sometimes there is
a clear theme. Sometimes there is
a truly fascinating and tremendous
story to share.
Sometimes, a Bulletin issue refl ects
just another day at Davey. Just another
day at Davey means employees are
doing exceptional and extraordinary
acts in service of their clients, their
communities and their colleagues.
So, what does just another day at
Davey mean? It means...
...BEING A GOOD SAMARITAN
Whether it's changing a fl at tire for
a stranger, calling 911 for an elderly
homeowner or helping prevent the
spread of a fi re, Davey employees
are good Samaritans.
Turn to page 10 to read about how
Davey employees exemplifi ed our
values of integrity and stewardship.
...SUPPORTING YOUR COMMUNITY
Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and
Northwest Indiana earned a special
Davey badge for participating in a
fun, educational outdoor program
organized by the Naperville and South
Chicago offi ces.
The Girl Scouts learned about
native trees, limb walking, and proper
tree planting.

...FINDING UNIQUE SOLUTIONS
When fl ood debris piled up against
a hydroelectric dam, the client knew
who to call.
Eastern Utility services employees
partnered with our health and safety
department to create a safe, innovative

18 feet tall to ensure the dam was
not impacted.
