Greetings from Olsson Associates
Olsson Associates is on the move in Des Moines, as staff members there are busy boxing up items to take to the new space. The move will be complete in a couple weeks, and will allow us to continue to provide a wide array of services. We've got information below on where we're headed.
Olsson's services are so diverse that our staff members are involved in projects involving presidential libraries. Read on to learn about the major grounds restoration one of our soil scientists completed at the George W. Bush Presidential Library in Dallas.
In this month's e-newsletter, in addition to staff awards, project updates, and an invitation to upload to Instagram some of the more interesting things on your desk, we're also very pleased to note that Katie Underwood, project engineer for our Land Development team, won her subdistrict's vote in Omaha's May 14 general election for the Omaha Public Schools' Board of Education. Congratulations, Katie!
As always, I welcome your questions or feedback. Please don't hesitate to contact me.
