2015 2nd Quarter Newsletter

Featured Climber

This quarter we pay our love and respect to

Clinton Waters

September 14, 1972 - March 17, 2009

For the month of July, we honor Clinton Waters. Clinton passed on March 17, 2009 Clint was born September 14, 1972 in Lake Wales and was a lifelong resident of the area. He was a tower technician for staffing firm Sky Hawk Wireless. Clint was of the Pentecostal faith and a served the in the U.S. Air Force. Clint graduated from Motorcycle Mechanics Institute in Orlando and loved to work on and ride ATVs. He enjoyed working on projects at home and spending time with his family. Clint Waters was preceded in death by his son, Chanden Harold Waters. Clint left behind his wife of 11 years, Holly Ann, his daughter, Bailey and his son, Dustin. He will be forever missed & loved. Please continue to be in prayer for his family. Even though it may be years since one of the climbers' passing, we ALL know that we never stop loving those that were taken too soon. We love you Waters Family!

Waters suddenly fell to his death on Tuesday in Lake Worth after working aloft on a monopole for almost three hours.

The Industry Has Been Slow

Although the industry has been a little slower than we anticipated, the foundation is still moving right along! So far this year we have raised almost $10,500, and we have

awarded 11 scholarships so far! In addition, we are anticipating two new ones by the end of this year, as well as a second round of reoccurring by December.

GWA sponsored us this May at their Spring Shoot, and we are still waiting to hear from some other wireless associations to see if they will sponsor us again this year. We, as

always would encourage climbers and their families to support the foundation through direct giving & apparel purchases! If you have new ideas for items, apparel, or fundraisers, please email Bridgette Hester at bridgette@hubblefoundation.org!

We also offer other ways to donate which include:

www.hubblefoundation.org

And the Winner Is..

Corie Fontenot of TowerMRL, Inc.

Safety has many applications as we all know. Several months ago, a donor contacted us about getting an AED into the field with a crew. We chose to purchase the Heartstart RFx because of its durability and performance reviews.

The gentleman donor is not in the industry, but is familiar with it, and has had a background in health, RF, and multiple other areas. He is passionate about it because an AED had saved his life. He donated monies to ensure that at least one AED would get into the field.

I then contacted some smaller companies that I knew of with reliable people, good crews, and a penchant for safety. I figured bigger companies would have the monies for an AED, so I targeted smaller companies. After taking into consideration crew size, years of experience in the industry, documentation of ALL of their certifications, & age of the crewmembers, we decided to award TowerMRL, Inc!

They have the AED now and have it registered, and the donor is very happy, as are we. He plans to try to drum up some more donations for AEDs in the future as well! Once we get another donation for another AED, we will be awarding that to the other company that was in the running!

2nd Quarter Scholarships

SPREAD THE WORD! THE HUBBLE FOUNDATION QR CODE!

The NEW logo!

It is awesome. However, we cant take credit. That honor goes to Kenneth Wesley Roberts! Wes has given us the logo to copyright and trademark.

He made us a couple different logo versions as well. Wes is also responsible for our 2015 Hubble Foundation shirt design!

We also have a new QR code that you can share

with others! This will take them directly to the

Foundations website!

This code is currently on the new Hubble

Foundation 2015 Shirt. It will also be placed on

new brochures and business cards this year!

Research! **We are continuing our research on several fronts. We appreciate your patience as we are

sifting through 300+ OSHA reports.

The Atop the Tower Project is being analyzed

NOW (finally). Thanks to all of you for filling out those surveys last year and early in 2015! We should have the results

soon and we will publish a White Paper as well as a Laymans paper (because not everyone likes research like Dr. Hester)

I cannot begin to express our gratitude and our love for all of the families, climbers, wireless associations, businesses, and companies that support Hubble Foundation!

We are looking forward to 2015 being our best year yet!
