Duraloy EMPLOYEES ENJOY ANNUAL CHRISTMAS PARTY!

Duraloy employees, retirees and guests recently enjoyed a wonderful evening at the 17th Annual Duraloy Employee Christmas Party. The party was held at the Scottdale Fireman's Social Hall on Saturday evening, December 4th, 2010.

"We were really pleased with the large turnout again this year. We had 195 total guests, including 25 Duraloy retirees. When we introduced the retirees, we noted to everyone that, in total, the retirees represented over 1000 years of service at Duraloy!" said Duraloy's Vice-President and General Manager Paul Rokosz, who also served as the MC for the evening. "Over the course of the evening, we were able to give away a gift to each and every attendee, as well as holding drawings for over $6,500 worth of prizes, which included Penguin tickets, Steelers tickets, and, of course - CASH." Rokosz continued.

In his opening remarks, Rokosz thanked everyone for the effort that everyone made to make 2010 a good year at Duraloy. He added our employees made solid contributions to Duraloy's success, given the tough economic times in the early part of the year. 

Duraloy's President, Vince Schiavoni, also spoke to the group. He also thanked everyone for their efforts in 2010. He added that the second half of 2010 has turned out to be very strong for Duraloy, and 2011 is starting off as another great year.

Guests then enjoyed a wonderful dinner (catered by Carson's Fine Catering) of freshly carved smoked ham & filet mignon, baked chicken, crab-stuffed cod, stuffed cabbage rolls, salads, potatoes, vegetables, rolls, etc. For dessert, guests enjoyed an ice cream station, loaded with ice cream and numerous toppings and goodies, as well as our chocolate fountain, which has become an all-time favorite at the party, with cream puffs, fruit, marshmallows and pretzels, all available for dipping into warm milk chocolate. Also included was a selection of beer and mixed drinks. There also was a Frozen Daiquiri Machine that was well used throughout the night! After dinner, a DJ provided musical entertainment for the rest of the evening.
