For the second year in a row, the A.G. Maas Company is proud to support their neighbor, Church Brothers Collision Repair, in their Driving Down Hunger campaign which benefits six area food pantries. More than 12% of Hoosiers live in poverty according to the Census Bureau.

Our donations are delivered directly to the great people of the Concord Neighborhood Center, just down the street from the A.G. Maas Company. This year, we were able to include toilet paper, gloves, and other cleaning supplies which they also appreciate.

What Makes the Stadium Village Farmer's Market the Best in Town?

If you work or live downtown, I can't think of a better time or place to buy fresh fruits, veggies, and meat in addition to other great artisan products!

The Stadium Village Farmer's Market is conveniently located in the parking lot adjacent to A.G. Maas Company (that's us with the red building!), across the street from Shapiro's Deli, and just two blocks west of the Eli Lilly and Company corporate headquarters.

I personally have bought from nearly every vendor over the past two years and have been pleased with it all. Not only are these people incredibly friendly, they are passionate and knowledgeable about what they do and grateful for the business.

The parking is free and it is right on your way home, from 4pm-7pm every Tuesday! Please visit the market website for more information on the vendors and activities. www.stadiumvillagefarmersmarket.com

I hope to see you there!

A.G. Maas Remembers Customer, Mike Upchurch, Director of Facilities for Ivy Tech Community College

Ivy Tech Memorial Garden: Benches Courtesy of A.G. Maas Company
When A.G. Maas got the call to get involved in development of a Memorial Garden at the Ivy Tech North Meridian Campus in Indianapolis, following the sudden passing of customer, Mike Upchurch, Director of Facilities, it was an easy reply, "What can we do to help?".

A.G. Maas was pleased to work with the staff at Ivy Tech to supply the precast concrete benches for this project.

A lot of hard work and planning went into creating this beautiful garden memorializing all those who have passed away from the Ivy Tech family, including Mike Upchurch.

For more information or a quote on A.G. Maas' precast concrete products, please contact them today!

Uitlander: It's all in a word at the Marion County Spelling Bee

Many of you have wondered if I take any pleasure in ringing the bell at the judges' table during the Marion County Spelling Bee, sponsored by IUPUI, Kroger and the Rotary Club of Indianapolis. The answer is absolutely not.

For the fourth year in a row, I have volunteered as a judge on behalf of the Rotary Club of Indianapolis. The photo above is taken from my vantage point at the judges' table. Look at these nervous, yet determined faces! How could I possibly take pleasure in disqualifying them for spelling a word wrong when they've studied so hard and take the competition so seriously.

Of the 40 participants, Regina Solomito, a homeschooled 8th-grader, won this year's Bee with the word "uitlander". I was so proud of all these outstanding young people. Regina will be representing Marion County, Indiana in the Scripps National Spelling Bee in Washington D.C. on June 1 and 2. Good luck Regina!
