Graphic Packaging Spotlight

Author: Melissa Shain

Weekly, Marvin Keller hauls 40-50 loads out of Graphic Packaging in Shelbyville. Many receivers we deliver to are actually warehouses that deliver smaller amounts of product to their local businesses like Wendy’s and Dairy Queen. We have new shippers for Graphic Packaging where volume continues to increase. The shippers that supply finished goods are Shelbyville, IL, Centralia, IL, and Clarksville, TN. These facilities ship paper items such as cups, lids, cup sleeves, microwave trays, beer cartons, etc. Other GP facilities ship raw materials, instead of finished goods. These are the GP Mills. As we continue to grow with GP, more sites will be introduced with different products being hauled.

Lost in the Arizona Desert

A favorite hobby of Joe’s is touring on his BMW Adventure Bike, a GS1200. The bike is equipped with an extra-large fuel tank with a range of about 300 miles. He noted that Arizona is the best place to escape winter on a motorbike. The latest trip was in the Tonto National Forest just Northeast of Phoenix. Scroll through the pictures to take in the beauty of the desert.

Joe traveled all over AZ. These are a couple of places he stopped to admire.

One landmark Joe stopped at is the Hassayampa River Bridge. This bridge was constructed in 1924 after a petition for a permanent wagon bridge over the Hassayampa River. The construction of this bridge simplified the means of travel, providing transport over the river rather than through it.

STOPPED BY SNOW!

Joe also stopped at the Walker Fire Station located in Walker, AZ. This station is ran solely off donations from the community and by volunteers. They provide emergency care for Walker and surrounding communities.

Now, for some beauty shots!
