Time is sure flying by this summer. It seems like we are constantly trying to balance life and work, all while we are cramming in summertime activities like vacations, ball games and trips to the pool. Before we know it, the kids are back to school and we start the routine of homework and extracurricular activities once again. I hope you all are able to take some time this summer to relax and enjoy the sun! On August 10 we will have our 6th Annual Hog Roast. Many thanks to the Kleinschmit Family for allowing us to hold this event on their property. We are excited to make this event free for our members as a way to say “Thank You” for your ongoing support of HBAL. The Bean Bag Toss Tournament is starting to fill and there are only a few spots remaining, so make sure you contact Andrea at the HBAL office to sign up your team of two. Another fun August event is the Remodelers Council Golf Tournament at Holmes Golf Course on August 24. This is a four-man scramble with a shotgun start. Throw in some fun side games and you have an entertaining day on the golf course, even if you’ve never swung a club! There was an article in the newspaper a couple weeks ago reporting the mayor is including $650,000 in the second year of his new budget to replace lead water service lines to about 3,000 homes. When all homes are completed over 14 years, the total cost is expected to be $21 million. While the HBAL Board of Directors is supportive of replacing lead water service lines, we oppose using City funds for the replacement of any water service line on private property. If the replacement of lead water service lines is a mandate, then we would prefer the City use low or no-interest financing through the City if a property owner cannot pay for the replacement. A property with a lead water service line should not be treated differently than a property which needs the water service line replaced because of damage by tree roots or from being undersized. New construction also pays for the installation of water service lines, so everyone should be treated equally. If there’s concern about potential backflow from the lead water service line and the property owner refuses to replace the line, the City should install a backflow preventer at the tap and charge the property owner. The City Council will be voting on the mayor’s budget on August 8. I shared our position with the City Council on July 30, if you also feel strongly about this issue I would encourage you to reach out to City Council members to share your thoughts. Looking ahead to September, mark your calendar to attend lunch on Thursday, September 13 at the HBAL office and bring a potential member! The centerfold of this issue is designed to “TEAR & SHARE!” It contains information about the lunch and other upcoming events, six reasons you should belong to HBAL, a list of contributions by the Lincoln Home Builders Care Foundation and a membership application.

Learn how typical recognition strategies leave most employees under appreciated. Turn your jobs into their investments to ensure the highest level of employee engagement.

HBAL Membership

“I joined Home Builders 20 years ago and have met many great friends and created some of the best business contacts! There are so many ways to get to know people from the fun activities like the golf tournaments and Hog Roast to going to Remodelers Council lunches or the social hour before HBAL meetings. I’m most excited about the Young Building Professional’s group and helping those who are just getting started in our field make connections like I did.”

“I have always recognized the importance of supporting HBAL but it wasn’t until I got actively involved that I realized how much the HBAL group does to support and protect our industry.” – Bo Jones, Tru Built Construction

- Lori Wellman, Lincoln Cabinet

“I value my HBAL membership because of the growth I have experienced as a professional and business owner. The networking and resources I receive from HBAL as a young home builder are invaluable in helping me run my business.”

“I value the opportunity that HBAL affords me to work with fellow builders to better our community. Learning from the extensive base of knowledge of fellow builders is invaluable. The camaraderie and friendships that I have developed through HBAL have made me a better builder and person.” - Denny Van Horn, Van Horn Family Building Co.

Goal-Based Networking

November Membership Luncheon & HBAL Election Goal-Based Networking by Jeff Beals Networking has never been more important, yet most professionals don’t do a great job of it. The successful professionals are the ones who cut through all the noise in today’s frenzied world and find ways to build trusting relationships with clients, colleagues and persons of influence. Now is the time to get out and meet new people! This session will introduce you to “goal-based networking,” a technique that sharply focuses your communication efforts. You will learn what to say, when to say it and to whom you should say it. You will learn how to synthesize social media with traditional networking. Once you master goal-based networking, your colleagues will be left wondering just how you became so well connected both locally and within your profession.

Hayley Lane YBP President

Thank you to Allo Communications for hosting our first morning mixer in July. We had a great turnout and it was fun to tour their beautiful building and hear the great things Allo is doing. We TRIPLED our proceeds we were able to donate to the Lighthouse from our Light the Way 5K this year! That is a huge accomplishment in our second year of this event and it would have not been possible without all of our generous sponsors and supportive members. Thank you!! More fun events coming up with Lighthouse. Make sure you watch your email for details on a salsa tasting, Halloween haunted house and cookie decorating in December. These all provide a perfect opportunity to get to know the great kids and staff at Lighthouse.
