Life at Al-jon
Sand in the City
Al-jon sponsored a pile of sand for the Sand in the City event with proceeds going towards the new Bridgeview Center being built in Ottumwa, Iowa. The Al-jon Team was spearheaded by Doug and Kathy Gulbranson, both Al-jon central employees, and was titled "Recycling is not the end...but the beginning." The Al-jon team's sand sculpture won the People's Choice award.
Each year Al-jon provides a children's Christmas party for the youngster of Al-jon's employees. The festivities include a gift for each child, a pizza dinner, and a cast of characters performing skits to entertain. And topping off the evening is a visit from Santa. Hosting the Christmas party is a nice way to show appreciation for Al-jon employees and their families during the holidays.
Golf Outing 
Beach Party
Surf's Up! One year Al-jon presented an employee family social during the summer. The beach party was held at the Ottumwa Beach Water Park and included a luau, hula dancers, a casino and swimming for the Al-jon employees and their guests.
Al-jon sponsored an Employee Day at the Track event at the Iowa Speedway in Newton, Iowa. Many employees are big race fans and had attended the races many times and others were experiencing the thrill of live racing for the first time. No matter your interest level, a great time was had by all.
