THE DAVEY BULLETIN
Even back-to-back snowstorms
dropping several feet of snow on
Colorado Springs, Colorado, last fall,
couldn't stop a two-day CLS Western
Government & Projects Training.
The operations in attendance were
Malmstrom Air Force Base Military
Family Housing (MFH), Denver
Colorado Service Center, Peterson Air
Force Base, Peterson & Schriever Air
Force Base MFH, Colorado Springs
North territory, Colorado Springs South
territory, U.S. Air Force Academy,
Hartney Greymont, a Davey company,
had an influx of newer employees
and needed a way to quickly train
their new recruits. To do this, they
outsourced some of their basic
trainings to ArborMaster.
Hartney Greymont employees learned
climbing best practices and work positioning
during their training with ArborMaster.

The attendees received instruction in
client experience, commercial grounds
management, safety and Department
of Transportation (DOT) regulations.
They also received an overview of
CLS Western government/projects and
discussed ways they could improve
their operations.
In the fall, Josh Fritz, district manager,
Concord office, teamed up with David
Anderson, assistant district manager,
Needham office, to provide an
ArborMaster Training for their
newer employees that focused on
tree climbing. The three-day training
started with climbing basics, such as
knot tying, and eventually worked its
way up to various climbing techniques.
"It's a good benefit to the employees.
It tells them that they are valued
and that we are investing in them to
succeed," Fritz said. "It gives Davey a
huge boost in morale. The crews are
happy we are taking care of them."
