Bir thdays Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to four Ace Family

Members; Amy Drew lost her father, James G. Lester III

on July 2nd at the age of 75, Ginger Hinkel lost her son,

James “Jim” Leonard Brochey II on July 17th at the age of

44, Pam Vickers lost her father, Warren “Alton” Hamlin on

July 24th at the age of 72 and Drew Murley lost his uncle,

David Carter, at the age of 40 and beloved cousin, Olivia

Brynn Carter at the young age of 6 on August 15th. Our

thoughts and prayers are with these four families during

this difficult time.

We are excited to announce the unveiling of Ace

University, our new training and education program that

will provide all Ace employees with convenient and

accessible training options via in-person, digital/online or

virtual/interactive learning sessions. “Ace U” will offer em-

ployees a vast array of courses in the areas of

business, IT and safety. More importantly are the career

development opportunities like the Apprenticeship

Program, “World-Class” Training, Pro-Start Training,

InterfACE Orientation Training, Leadership Training,

Mentoring, Skills Upgrade Training, foreign language

classes and the Qualified Electrical Worker designation

program. Ace University will provide Ace employees with

opportunities to better their technical, communications

and leadership skills which will open doors for

advancement and career growth.

Ace recently received the US Department of Labor

accreditation as an Electrical Apprenticeship Program

Training Institution. In addition, our brand new

Apprenticeship Program that was developed internally to

focus more on Ace culture and the skills and information

needed specifically for the segments of construction we

work in, has been approved in Georgia, North Carolina and

Tennessee. Having our own “in-house” Apprenticeship

Program provides more flexibility to the students by way

of class inclusion and credit for previous on-the-job

experience or training. This new Apprenticeship Program

will provide students with a more cultivated pathway to

receiving a nationally-recognized Journeyman

Certification. Our first Ace University Apprenticeship clas-

ses for those individuals seeking to pursue a Journey Level

Electrician certificate, will commence in January 2021.

The Ace Family continues to grow! On June 29th, Kelly

Madsen was blessed with her second grandchild! Her

daughter, Brooke (and Mason) Mayes welcomed their

baby boy, Wylder Drake Mayes, into the world weighing

6 lbs. 13 oz. and measuring 20 inches long. Wylder has a

proud big sister Emmie. A big congrats to first time

grandparents, Tim and Robin Harris on the birth of their

first grandchild! Their son, Brandon (and Darbi) Harris,

welcomed their baby boy, Griffin Cain Harris into the

world on July 15th weighing 7 lbs. 2 oz. and measuring

Safet y

19.5 inches long. Congrats to parents Chelsey and Josh

Pevey, who were blessed with their third baby girl!

Emma James Pevey came into this world weighing 7 lbs.

13 oz. and measuring 20.5 inches long. Emma has two

proud big sisters Lane Marie and Anna Kate. Congrats to

the new parents, Samantha and Bryce Stuckey, on the

birth of their baby girl, Brooke Kimberly Stuckey, born

July 24th weighing 7 lbs. 2 oz. Congrats to seasoned

grandparents, David and Brenda Vaughn on the birth of

the 7th grandchild! Their son Josh (and Michaela)

Hutchinson welcomed their baby boy, Hayes Wilder

Hutchinson, into the world on August 1st weighting 7 lbs.

2 oz. and measuring 20 inches long. Congratulations to

all the growing families!

Barry Hart recently graduated from the University of

Georgia with a Bachelor of Business Administration and

was accepted into Georgia Tech for the Masters of

Science in Cybersecurity starting January 2021. Great

job Barry!

Ace received CEFGA’s K-12 Pipeline Employer of the

Year Award for 2020! Ace has developed great

relationships with multiple K-12 schools throughout

Georgia by providing students with school-to-work

opportunities, internships and the opportunity to

participate in the Apprenticeship Program. Ace has

also sponsored, and provided judges for various skills

challenges in addition to providing speakers to educate

students about careers in construction, specialized

training opportunities, lunch-and-learn events, jobsite

tours and “in kind” donations of items such as electrical

materials and construction PPE.

Each year Ace Electric employees log millions of miles

traveling to and from work sites. Driving is a dangerous,

but necessary activity we all take part in every day to get

to and from work, pick up children from school and other

activities, run errands, etc. Now that fall is here and

(most) schools are open again, there will be buses on the

roads, active school zones and more pedestrian traffic in

our communities. Be on the lookout for buses stopping

on the roads, lower speed limits in school zones and

children crossing the streets. Nobody wants to be the

cause of any type of traffic accident, especially one in-

volving children. Drive safely…like it’s your neighborhood!

Also remember that the cooler temperatures will have

the wildlife on the move. Deer strikes are becoming more

frequent and dangerous. Keep an eye out for them on

roadways in lesser populated areas and if you see any on

the shoulder of the road or in the edges of fields or

woods, slow down because they are very unpredictable

and will dart out into the roadway.
