Richey Woodworking to be April 30 ASM feature on going green

ASM's board of directors extends an open invitation to attend a special networking event on April 30 that will feature a presentation by mountain-climber, Mark Richey. Richey has not only scaled some of the world's tallest peaks, he is also founder and CEO of Mark Richey Woodworking & Design, an ASM member company. Inspired by first-hand observation of climate change on mountain landscapes, Richey and his company have made a corporate commitment to sustainable construction, starting with their own headquarters. He will talk both about his climbing adventures and his adventures "going green" - erecting a wind turbine and installing a biomass furnace at the company's Newburyport facilities, and developing the expertise to provide the "green" services that customers demand today. The event takes place at the Newton Marriott, starting with a reception at 4:30 p.m. Visit the ASM website for details.
