Jeff Grube

Continued from page 4 leadership, the business has expanded its size and is a major employer in the area.

Jeff served on the Punxsutawney Planning and Zoning Commission as secretary and treasurer for 24 years and served on the Jefferson County Economic Development Council. He is also a trustee and the secretary of the Weber Trust.

Jeff’s commitment to his hometown community is simply stated, yet profound in its day-to-day expression: “My personal commitment is to try and build a better place to live, for my family, the people I work with at BFG, and myself.”

This commitment – easier said than fulfilled – was inspired by an individual, by a group’s motto, and by members of that group. “My father Bob Grube was very active in community organizations, and I learned by watching him,” Jeff says before adding, “When I joined Rotary, the group of people in the club lived the motto “Service Above Self.” I found that appealing, I embraced that outlook and am proud to associate with the Rotary group.”

Jeff continues: “In that light I would also mention Bill Cooper, Rusty Johnston, and Richard Mowrey; they each have the service to community approach. The admiration I had for their work led me to accept offers to join groups they were involved with.”

Jeff regards the atmosphere as, perhaps, his community’s greatest attribute. “Punxsutawney has a welcoming Midwestern friendly feel,” he says. “The Groundhog Day celebration has exposed that feel to the world. The people who come here see it, love it, and return to get more.”

The local feel or vibe can always be enhanced by the completion of community projects, and Jeff has a personal wishlist of such projects: “A campground on Mahoning Creek, near the rails to trails for visitors. An expansion of city waterlines to allow for new development in Punxsutawney – both businesses and a new housing development. A local private equity group to help our startup businesses to grow and thrive.”
