Nickerson & O’Day, teams up with the awesome crew at Bangor Fire Department

December 15th: Every year, Karl’s construction company, Nickerson & O’Day, teams up with the awesome crew at Bangor Fire Department to “fill the fire engine” with gifts and deliver them to the Bangor region Toys for Tots program…which makes sure that kids that otherwise wouldn’t have anything under their tree Christmas morning will see that Santa didn’t forget them this year. Many thanks to Jared Bowden, John York, Andy Willigar and Chief Thomas Higgins for allowing us to help them bring so many smiles to these young faces! Merry Christmas!

Karl had the honor of speaking before roughly 300 folks

On October 29th, Karl had the honor of speaking before roughly 300 folks as we cut the ribbon on our latest Nickerson & O’Day creation – the new $10M Sargent Family Recreation and Community Center in Presque Isle!

During Karl’s speech, he announced that we would establish a $30,000.00 Nickerson & O’Day- pledged program for the youth of the region – to develop their health and minds at this amazing new center.

Many thanks to all involved and for allowing Karl and his company to be a part of this great collaboration!

Nickerson & O’Day teams up with the brave men and women of Bangor Fire Department

December 15th: Each year, Nickerson & O’Day teams up with the brave men and women of Bangor Fire Department to raise money and then go on a massive shopping spree for the Toys for Tots program.

This year, we were able to raise about $3,000 and Tuesday night, we visited Bangor stores and “filled the firetruck” to the roof with presents! We then delivered the load to the Bangor region Toys for Tots warehouse for distribution to needy families.

In doing this, we ensure that dozens of children across Maine who otherwise would have nothing under their tree Christmas morning, can see that Santa did not forget them this year!

Many thanks to Bangor Fire Department Chief Thomas Higgins, and firefighters Andy Willigar, Jared Bowden, and John York and many others and their families for allowing us to be part of this great tradition! Merry Christmas to everyone!
