Thanks Maybelle Center for the kind words! Our team has enjoyed working with yours. We're grateful for the opportunity to do work that serves our community and helps Build Space for People to Flourish.
We are so appreciative of the SUPER epic work from our Pence Contractors crew, including Dave Oury, captured on camera in his true heroic outfit while on the job at our Macdonald Residence Assisted Living facility! Dave and the whole team's care and attention with our Residents was superhuman. Working to reduce the disruptions during a naturally very disruptive construction period (while we've added a second elevator, new roofing, and mini-splits in each Resident room), was invaluable. And in truly legendary performance, our construction project has been completed AHEAD of schedule! We are delighted to be entering the holiday season with increased mobility, comfort, and space to celebrate with our Residents and Members!

This fall, Pence proudly helped sponsor the Kiwanis Club of Prineville’s Casino Night & Auction, which raised nearly $85,000 for improvements to Stryker Park and other youth initiatives that make a difference in Central Oregon. More than 200 community members joined in the fun—bidding in auctions, playing games and supporting this incredible cause. Special thanks to Vickie and Tyson for attending, and to our partner Pence/Kelly Concrete, LLC for sponsoring the prize wheel, as well as previously donating time to complete the park’s splash pad. It’s always an honor to give back to an organization that gives so much! #buildingspaceforpeopletoflourish #centraloregon #communityimpact #kiwanisclubofprineville #pencecontractors #pencepeople #penceproud #prinevilleoregon #strykerpark #wegiveofourselves #wesucceedtogether THE KIWANIS CLUB OF PRINEVILLE, OREGON

Shoutout to Dave Oury for his exceptional leadership at Macdonald Residence, an assisted living facility serving some of Portland’s most vulnerable residents. Dave led the installation of new mini splits in every unit, a milestone that brought much-needed comfort to individuals who previously had no cooling in their homes. Throughout the process, Dave treated residents, staff and trade partners with genuine respect and care, ensuring every temporary relocation stayed on schedule. His humility, reliability and commitment strengthened trust with everyone involved. Dave truly embodies our values of caring for people and keeping our promises. We’re proud to have him on our team representing Pence! – Philip #buildingspaceforpeopletoflourish #constructionleaders #employeeprops #pencecontractors #pencepeople #penceproud #wecareforthesafetyandwellbeingofpeople #wegiveofourselvestofulfillourpurpose #wekeepourpromisesevenwhennooneislooking

It’s Subcontractor Appreciation Month and our team sincerely values the relationships we’ve built with our subs. That’s why in September we've been celebrating the trade partners that make our projects possible! “Healthcare construction is some of the most rewarding and demanding work we do. Whether building a new clinic or retrofitting a radiology suite, success depends on our subcontractors’ deep understanding of what’s at stake. Pence’s partners help us navigate the challenges of working in active, occupied medical facilities where critical building systems like fire protection and mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) must remain uninterrupted. They must also understand infection control guidelines and help us plan around patients and staff with constant communication and care. Healthcare construction is a specialty and we couldn’t do it without trusted partners who bring technical expertise, precision and collaboration to every project. They’re not just part of the process—they’re essential to the outcome.” – Jennifer, Project Executive At Pence, one of our core values is “We succeed together.” Our subcontractors’ dedication drives our shared success and we’re grateful for the behind-the-scenes brilliance they bring to every healthcare project—this month and throughout the year! #buildingspaceforpeopletoflourish #construction #constructionindustry #contractor #driventoconstantlyimprove #generalcontractor #pencecontractors #respect #subcontractors #subcontractorappreciationmonth #thankful #tradepartners #weforgerelationshipswithmutualrespect #wesucceedtogether A few of the many fantastic trade partners we’ve proudly worked alongside recently include: · American Iron Welding & Repair · Arctic Sheet Metal · Basic Fire Protection, Inc. · Carlson Roofing Company Inc · CASH'S DRAPERY · Christenson Electric · DON FRANK FLOORS INC · Floor Solutions LLC · Hammerquist HVAC & Plumbing · Harlen’s Drywall · Kipco Construction · Kraft Masonry, Inc. · MacDonald-Miller Facility Solutions · MCDONALD & WETLE ROOFING, INC. · Mid-Valley Commercial Construction, Inc. · NessCampbell Crane + Rigging · NORTHSIDE ELECTRIC INC · Omlid & Swinney Fire Protection · Oregon Commercial Painters · Parker Concrete Inc · Pence/Kelly Concrete, LLC · Red Hawk Fire Protection · River City Glass, Inc · SALEM WOOD PRODUCTS, INC. · Smith Roofing & Sheet Metal · SteelFab, Inc. · The Harver Company · Weitman Excavation

On 9/15, the Molalla community gathered to celebrate the groundbreaking of its new Molalla River Middle School (MRMS)! Led by Superintendent Tony Mann and Principal Randy Dalton, the ceremony brought staff and students together with School Board officials, the PAC and volunteers who worked tirelessly to pass the May 2024 bond, the Bond Oversight Committee, and project partners Opsis Architecture and Otak CPM. Thanks to everyone who attended. This milestone marks the start of a long-awaited and much-needed replacement for the 70-year-old middle school, ensuring a modern learning environment to serve future generations. Pence is honored to be the district’s partner on this important project, which will open its doors in fall 2027. Congratulations to the Molalla River School District! We look forward to watching the new campus become a source of pride for students as it takes shape, and inspire learning and growth for decades to come. #bondproject #buildingforthefuture #buildingoregonschools #buildingspaceforpeopletoflourish #buildingspaceformolallatoflourish #buildingspaceforstudentstoflourish #communitygrowth #construction #education #excellencecharactercommunity #gowolverines #groundbreaking #groundupconstruction #growingexceptionalfutures #k12schools #molallaoregon #molallarivermiddleschool #molallariverschooldistrict #molallariverschools #oregonschools #pencecontractors #penceproud #schools #wesucceedtogether
