Kenny Blomberg, Engineering Apprentice by Denton Yocum
After 10,000+ documents scanned to PDF; 50+ designs; 800+ new and updated drawings; 3,500+ shop jobs pro- cessed; and many part and equipment audits, I must say “Kenny has left the building”. For the last 4 years Kenny Blomberg worked as an Engineering Intern in the Machine Shop but has moved on to finish his Industrial Engineering degree at Southern Illinois University in Edwardsville. Throughout his internship Kenny learned all about how ideas turn into reality from brainstorming with key personnel to engineering design, detail drawing creation, material and part sourcing, manufacturing, testing and finally (hopefully) acceptance of the final product. Kenny designed everything from the flap tuckers used on horizontal cartoners to vertical cartoner rails and countless brackets. Kenny left Crest Foods with a new set of skills and valuable knowledge he will use the rest of his career. He also left us

with a lot of valuable work completed and many fond memories of his time here. The enthusiasm that Kenny threw into every task was inspiring and if he is an example of the people who will follow in our footsteps, then we are in good hands. We wish Kenny the best as he finishes school and starts his engineering career. 2016 Magic Waters Outting On July 16, the weather finally cooperated for this year’s Crest Foods Night at Magic Waters! A whopping 911 tick- ets were sold for this event so everywhere you looked, you saw someone you knew! By the sounds of laughing and squealing of children and adults alike, it was a successful night. Thanks to Crest employees, family and friends who attended this year!
