As another incredible year comes to a close, the Baxter Construction team gathered to reflect on our achievements, recognize outstanding contributions, and enjoy some well-deserved fun at our annual Year-End Meeting. From team bonding moments to celebrating our award winners, the event was a fantastic way to wrap up 2024 and look ahead to even greater things in the new year.
Honoring Excellence: 2024 Award Winners
We take great pride in recognizing the dedication and hard work of our team members who go above and beyond. This year, we are excited to celebrate the recipients of two prestigious awards:
Charles F. Baxter Award – George Rashid
Continuing our tradition of honoring those who embody the core values of Baxter Construction, the Charles F. Baxter Award was proudly presented to George Rashid. George’s commitment to excellence, leadership, and unwavering dedication to our mission make him a truly deserving recipient of this esteemed recognition.
The Charles F. Baxter Award is given to individuals who exemplify the qualities that define our company culture: a strong sense of humor, a dedicated work ethic with a can-do attitude, loyalty and staying power within the company, humble leadership, and the ability to inspire those around them to believe and grow. George’s contributions have consistently demonstrated these values, and we are grateful for his impact on our team. Congratulations, George!
Rookie of the Year – Sam Maloley
Starting strong and making an immediate impact is no easy feat, but Sam Maloley has done just that. We are thrilled to recognize Sam as our Rookie of the Year, celebrating his impressive contributions, hard work, and enthusiasm in his first year with Baxter Construction.
The Rookie of the Year Award is presented to a first-year team member who exemplifies standout performance, exceptional character, and unwavering dedication. To be eligible, the recipient must have been with Baxter for at least 12 months but less than 24 months. Sam has exceeded these expectations, proving himself to be an invaluable part of our team, and we are excited to see what the future holds for him. Congratulations, Sam!

Beyond the awards, the evening was filled with camaraderie, laughter, and plenty of memorable moments. Our team enjoyed delicious food, great company, and a few surprises that made the night even more special. Whether it was sharing stories, enjoying fun activities, or simply reflecting on our collective successes, the night truly highlighted what makes Baxter Construction such a special place to work.
