It has been nearly ﬁve years since the
execuve management team at Harrison Steel Casngs redeﬁned our strategic goals and modiﬁed our Mission
and Vision Statements. The underlying theme of our mission and vision
statements today is: Harrison Steel
will be a globally compeve, vercally integrated organizaon by
providing engineered casng and
ﬁnish machine soluons to diverse
markets with a focus on connuous
improvement, employee development and aenon to customer
sasfacon. On behalf of the sales and customer service teams, it is with great pleasure that we can announce Harrison Steel is successfully moving toward our strategic goals. To further validate our commitment
to servicing new markets, HS has recently become PED Cerﬁed and has begun the process of obtaining ABS
and DNV Cerﬁcaon.
As many of us are aware, the construcon and mining industries have long been the primary markets served by Harrison Steel Casngs. We are grateful for our world class partners in these two markets, and
we look forward to serving them for many years to come. Just as is the case with a rerement porColio, it is
important to be diversiﬁed to minimize risk. We all are too familiar with the volality experienced in the mining industry over the years, with 2013 being a great example of how a signiﬁcant down turn in this market can
have a signiﬁcant impact on Harrison Steel and our valued employees. The HS Sales Team is excited about our
diversiﬁcaon progress in new markets which has resulted in new partnerships with world class OEM’s. Based
on our paGern shop workload, the next several months will see many new part introducons at Harrison Steel
Casngs.
The Gas/Oil industry is a very fast-growing market segment for Harrison Steel. With the combinaon of the new work awarded and the high quote volume in this arena, there is great opmism that this market will connue to show growth at HS. A very big thank you should be extended to Fairﬁeld Manufacturing,
Naonal Oilwell VARCO, Siemens Energy,
and Weatherford Internaonal for their
conﬁdence in Harrison Steel Casngs. In ...the next sev- the long term, these organizaons are

the current opportunies in their respecThe Pump/Valve market is a new part innew market to Harrison Steel Casngs.
The Pump/Valve market is strong and
typically does not experience the drasc
downturns that we see in the mining in- troducons at
dustry. The quote acvity in this market
is also high. In fact, HS has been idenﬁed
by Sulzer Pump as a supplier that they
will be developing to supply large pump Harrison Steel
case housings. There are a few signiﬁcant
pipeline projects that, once approved by Casngs.
the United States and/or Canadian governments, will produce signiﬁcant opportunity in this market. HS has completed
the analysis to quickly respond to the
needs of customers in this market, once it
is required. Addional customers that have expressed interest in Harrison Steel in the form of requesng
quotes are Cameron Pump & Valve, Fisher Controls, Goulds Pump, ITT Valve, and Weir Valve & Controls. Also,
thank you to Fisher Control and Sulzer Pump for taking the me to audit Harrison Steel and review our capabilies and processes. Needless to say, our sales team is well on our way through the learning curve of this
new market, and with that experience, we will have a posive markeng plan to reach even more customers
in the pump/valve market. A very big thank you to Daniel Measurement Control (Emerson) for their conﬁdence in Harrison Steel Casngs to supply ﬁnish machined valve casngs.
While the mining industry outlook remains ﬂat to slightly up, Harrison Steel would like to extend a
sincere thank you to Caterpillar, Hitachi, Komatsu, and Liebherr Mining for their connued loyalty and support
of Harrison Steel Casngs. We have launched new projects with all of these customers, despite the recent
mining down turn.
In closing, we wanted to take a moment to thank all of the employees at Harrison Steel, especially
our manufacturing and producon teams, for your support of the sales and customer service departments.
The feedback we receive from our customers concerning your technical capabilies and dedicaon to quality
and process control is incredible. We wish we could share with each of you the number of compliments we
receive from our customers concerning our workmanship and culture. That is a direct reﬂecon of you and
something you should be very proud of. We also believe it is the largest factor in why these world-class
OEM’s are partnering with Harrison Steel. Just as a heads up, our sales group is gathering market data with
the plan of making higher alloy materials at Harrison Steel. It is something that our new customers are requesng, especially in the Pump/Valve markets. More on that to come. Please connue to work safely and
eﬃciently – you represent the ﬁnest work force in the foundry industry, and we need your eﬀorts to connue
meeng our strategic goals as an organizaon.

Energy Audits
and
Your Ideas
Since early July, the Energy Team has been completing monthly energy audits throughout the plant. The
purpose of these energy audits is to identify potential
energy savings, obtain energy saving ideas from employees and supervisors, and to answer any questions
about the Energy Team. The Energy Team then
meets every other month to discuss these ideas and
to assign them to an individual on the team to investigate. The last meeting had provided several ideas that
we are currently looking into.
The representatives for the following areas are:
Cleaning Room Plant 1: Brad Brooks and Jim Murphy
Plant 2: Blaine Gretencord and KC Smith
Furnace Department: Anoop Balakrishnan
Foundry: Tom Anderson
Machining: Levi Knowlton
Main Office: Jack Foster
Maintenance: Landon Maroska
If you see your representative, or any other
member of the Energy Team, walking through
your area, feel free to approach them with
your questions or ideas. And if you don’t get
the chance to speak with your representative,
you can always use the HPS boards.

Trampolines have
been
providing
families a fun outdoor ac#vity for many years now. The trampoline
was patented by gymnast George Nissen in 1945 for acrobats and
gymnasts and was eventually u#lized by the military for training.
The last 10 years have seen a signiﬁcant increase in home trampoline usage, as 1 in every 15 homes now includes a trampoline as a
fun way for families to spend #me together. But, with the increase
of any ac#vity, there is bound (no pun intended) to be an increase
of accidents and injuries. Keeping your children safe around trampolines is a must if you’re going to allow them to jump on one.
The sta#s#cs for child injuries are compelling:
Trampoline Injury Stascs (2012)
70 per 100,000 children Ages 0-4 reported to
the hospital for injuries
160 per 100,000 Children Ages 5-14 reported
to the hospital for injuries
That equals 98,000 Injuries Reported
¾ of Injuries occur when several kids bounce at the same #me.
Here are some of the safety reminders that everyone should remember when it comes to trampolines:
Always follow the manufactures direc#ons on assembly, including all safety features such as safety ne6ng
Always use a safety enclosure
According to the CSPC (Consumer Product Safety Commission)
and ASTM, (American Society for Tes#ng and Materials)
any trampoline over 20” tall is not safe for children under
6 to use – there are kids’ trampolines available for toddlers and younger children
Children should be supervised at all #mes while jumping
Somersaults and ﬂips should only be performed by expert
jumpers to avoid neck injuries
Make sure any bars or springs are suﬃciently padded – cheaper units tend to skimp on safety padding
Make sure the safety net enclosure door is always closed or
purchase an overlapping entry net
Know the maximum weight limit of your trampoline – most max
out at 250 lbs., but some only go up to 200 pounds.
This will be my final article for
Tapping Out. July 31st is my
final day after 30+ years at Harrison Steel. I write this with mixed
emotions, as, even though I am
greatly looking forward to retirement, I am leaving with a lot of
good memories.
Dressed in their Hawaiian shirts, Ed
Bowen, Lisa Kirby, and Mike on the

right.
over the years, both in people
and the way the plant operates.
The automated molding line, the new machining building, the introduction of HPS and a much cleaner and safety conscious environment are just some of the many positive changes that have been
made. I am sure management will continue this tradition.
Most of the people who were here when I started are no longer
here. I have become the resident old guy, which is very strange
when, in my eyes, I’m still the brown-haired young man I was when I
started.
I have had a great run here at Harrison Steel. I would like to thank
the Harrison and Curtis families for all they have done for my family
and me over the years. I have been blessed to work for good people.
Finally, I would like to thank you, the employees of Harrison Steel,
past and present, for making my job both enjoyable and interesting.
I count many of you as my friends. We have been part of each other’s lives for many years. We have shared lots of laughs and some
tears. When I hear “Satisfy Your Customer”, I think of you. You, the
employees have always been my “customer”. I have tried my best
to satisfy you over the years.
That’s about all I have to say. I know I will see some of you around.
Once again, thank you.
Mike
We would like to thank all of you who helped in
making the company garden a success this summer! It was once wriCen, “Volunteers don’t necessarily have the #me, but they have the heart”

News from the Breakroom….
Office...by Lori McAdams
Lori McAdams
It was a family aﬀair recently when Lisa
Kirby’s grandsons operated a lemonade
stand. Dean (5 years old) and Deklan (3
years old) are the sons of Dillon and
Stacey Deel. Dillon is a First Class Electrician in the Nuclear Division of the Navy.
The boys are spending part of their summer here with their Indiana families. Lisa and husband Rusty
will be taking the boys back to Norfolk, Virginia where they
reside with their parents. Pictured with Dean and Deklan is
their other grandma Lori Edmonson. Her mother is Patsy
Edmonson who works in the HS Foundry. The boys’ great
uncle is Jeﬀ Pycke (Machining). Dean and Deklan operated
their lemonade stand in the Perry Street front yard of their
great grandparents June and Marvin Pycke.
B.J. Newton and Eric Foust returned to B.J.’s home town and
golfed for a good cause this summer. Both par2cipated in
the 13th annual Nunan Open, a four-person scramble golf
tournament hosted at the Crawfordsville Country Club to
raise money for the Nunan Junior Golf Founda2on. B.J. and
Eric’s team shot a 55 (15 under par) to win the tournament.
The funds raised from the tournament will sponsor the
Montgomery County Jr. Championship, the Crawfordsville
Country Club Annual Jr. Golf Camp, and sponsorship of the
PGA Sports Academy for the Montgomery County area. In
addi2on, two $500 scholarships will be awarded to a
male and female senior in the
spring of 2015.
Apparently Eric Foust didn’t
have quite as much luck on a
later HS Golf League ou2ng.
Eric denied any knowledge of
who the “character” in the top
of the evergreen tree is, but
luckily there were witnesses to the event. Trevor Cur2s supplied the picture, and Jack Foster (Cost) described what happened this way: “Man misses short pu>. Man throws pu>er
into top of evergreen tree. Man retrieves pu>er as he has
one more hole to play.” Jack says that this behavior isn’t
that much out of the ordinary. I don’t know if he means for
Eric or for HS Golf League par2cipants in
general.
Pam Harmon (Cost) became Pam
Harmon-Po>er on August 9th. Pam
married Chris Po>er in a ceremony
at the West Lebanon Chris2an
Church. Pam and Chris’s children
and grandchildren took part in the
ceremony which was a>ended by
over 80 guests. We hope that Pam
and Chris live happily ever aBer!
Leslie Fletcher recently
returned to HS aBer a
vaca2on in Redington
Shores, Florida. The vaca2on was a celebra2on
of her mom and dad’s
40th wedding anniversary. While there, the
Fletcher family saw the
alligator exhibit at John’s Pass in Maderia Beach, Florida
where the kids got to hold
and feed alligators. When
none of the kids wanted to
kiss an alligator, Leslie’s
sister Jami did the honors.
The landmark wedding anniversary dinner was held at a
restaurant called Gators
and, yes, they tried (and
liked!) gator meat.
Pa>y (Sales) and Monty Abernathy are expec2ng two new
addi2ons to their family! Cocker spaniels Rudy and Bo will
join the family on August 22nd. Pa>y contends that the puppy purchase was necessary because Monty needs a re2rement project. Monty is lucky that he will only have two pups
to bring up as grandson Jayce wanted them to bring home
the whole li>er!
The main oﬃce will not be as colorful from now on since
Mike Wrighthouse (Proﬁt Sharing) re2red on July 31st. Mike
came to work in the Proﬁt Sharing Department at HS on November 28, 1983. In 1999 when Dick Crane re2red as head
of the Insurance Department, the Proﬁt Sharing and Insurance posi2ons were combined, and Mike became the Beneﬁts Manager. In 2010, Mike’s du2es were revised and he
became the Human Resources Project Manager. He came
full circle back to Proﬁt Sharing in January 2014 where he
helped train his aBer-re2rement replacement and assisted
with Harrison Steel’s transi2on to its new Proﬁt Sharing model. The oﬃce and produc2on staﬀ will miss Mike’s cheerful
Hawaiian shirts and willingness to help us with our own re2rement accounts. We wish him well and thank him for
helping to color our HS world for over 30 years!

“Some
Some of the best
memories are made in
flip flops.”
From Magic in the Backyard by Kelli Elmore
Harrison Steel had the opportunity to help area kids make
some good memories “in
their own backyards” this summer through its support of summer youth programs in both Fountain
and Warren Counties. Among those programs
was the Williamsport Parks Program. For the
third year in a row, kids in the program spent one
of the program weeks constructing boats made
out of cardboard and duct tape. The duct tape for
this fun and educational project was donated by
HS. Boats had to hold two passengers. Nine
boats competed in the race which was held at the
Williamsport pool with only two finishing the race
across the pool and back again. The winners
were The Tigers, and The Poseidon came in second. Several kids who participated in the Park
Program have parents who work at HS.
Harrison
Steel was
also
among area
business who
helped
support
Summer
Reading
programs
at both the
Attica and Veedersburg libraries. Both libraries
chose the National 2014 CSLP (Collaborative
Summer Library Program) theme which was “Fizz
Boom Read!” Each library used the CSLP manual for “Fizz Boom Read!” as a guide and then
planned fun activities in addition to reading related to the theme. Support in each community was
also used to purchase rewards for participation
and incentives to continue reading. The Attica
program had 99 children and teenagers who participated, and the Veedersburg program involved
100! Great numbers for two small communities!
“Take Me Out to the Ballgame”
Harrison Steel and its employees have had a longstanding love affair with baseball. Prior to World War II, there
was so much interest in the game that HS had its own league
with competition between department teams being reportedly
hot and heavy. Following World War II, it appears that softball instead of baseball began to be played.
While HS no longer has its own baseball or softball league or teams, many employees still play in the
community co-ed softball league. Many of those people put their softball skills and love of the game to
use this summer at a benefit for Jennifer (HHCC) and Joel McMurtrie
(Cleaning Room) held on July 19th and 20th at Happy Walter Field.
The benefit was organized by Tracey Bartlett (Cleaning Room) who recruited
help from everyone from family and friends to area merchants. Eight teams
competed in the softball part of the tournament, but the fun didn’t end there!
There was a cornhole tournament which was won by Rick Buck (Quality)
and a homerun derby won by Eddie Whitehead. Raffles of a large number
of donated prizes were also part of the festivities. Many people also contributed great food including a hog donated by J.D. Gray (Machining). Rick
Buck paid for the processing and Walt Black (Cleaning Room) roasted the
hog in one of the HS hog roasters. Bill
McMurtrie (Cleaning Room), and Jeff Wood (Cleaning Room) donated and
cooked lots of hamburgers as well.
To the best of Tracey’s recollection, the following HS employees played in
the softball tournament: Cleaning Room: Jodi Ping,
Kevin Ping, Leonard Gregory; Foundry: Tom Anderson, Kevin Key, Jeff Hollis, Jack Crowder; Machining:
Greg Hollis, Caleb Askren, Brad Willis, J.R Hubbard; Quality:
Rick Buck; Housing: Jamie Stafford. Matt Pierce (Cleaning Room) lined the
field and was on standby in case equipment was needed and Cindy Briles (Housing)
was the umpire.
Though only one team could win (that would be Nick Burris’s team), some good ol’
summertime fun was had by all and, once again, the employees of HS have proven
that if you’re part of the HS family, No One Fights Alone.
On behalf of the McMurtrie family, Kathy McMurtrie (HR) would like to extend a HUGE thank you to Tracey Bartle" for organizing and
running the so&ball tournament beneﬁt for Jennifer and Joel McMurtrie. She did an awesome job and put her whole heart into it. Tracey
has such a big and loving heart. She saw one of our HS employees could use some help during a diﬃcult /me and took it upon herself to
have a fundraiser for this young family. She organized and gathered up raﬄe prizes, put teams together, bought concession stand items,
and made sure the events of the day ran smoothly. The weekend took a huge amount of work and organiza/on and Tracey did it with
love and compassion. Tracey epitomizes what a small town is all about - caring for those who live and work in our community and stepping up to do what one can for others in their /me of need. Thank you, Tracey!
