Over the summer of 2020, Holder Construction Company invited Bel-Aire to participate in this Make A Wish Arizona opportunity. Russ Hines (Project Manager) coordinated the effort to provide and install a high pressure misting system in Ruby’s back yard. Leland Tsosie (Plumbing Foreman) and Erin Etsitty (Plumbing Apprentice) installed the misting system, creating an area cooled by the misters, that Ruby could access easily to enjoy her backyard.

A Bel-Aire Mechanical team of 12 converged on the Phoenix Convention Center on Friday, December 1, 2017 at 4:00 PM to be part of the biggest MobliePack event in the Western United States to support Feed My Starving Children. The goal for each 2-hour packing session during the 3-day event was to pack 40,000 meals. We blew that number out of the water packing 66,669 meals that will feed 183 children for a year We had a lot of fun scooping, sealing, and packing.
Thanks to the following BAM team:
Justin Smith and his son Hunter
David Williams, his wife Juanita and their son David

For the second year in a row Bel-Aire Mechanical was recognized for outstanding occupational safety and health by the national SMACNA association. Bel-Aire was again awarded first place among all SMACNA contractors in the 200,001-300,000 hours category for the second consecutive year.
Scott Kienest (Bel-Aire Mechanical’s Safety Director) accepted the first place award at the annual SMACNA on behalf of Bel-Aire Mechanical.
It is no surprise that Tilden Dickson ended up in the sheet metal trade, but his recognition as this year’s Apprentice of the Year was a welcome and well-earned honor.
Training Director Albert Blanco explains that Tilden was selected as this year’s Apprentice of the Year because of his outstanding achievements – including high grades and employer evaluations – during his time at the apprenticeship.
Dickson now emanates a passion for learning new skills, and is pursuing more education and training even though he graduated from the Sheet Metal Apprenticeship earlier this year. He explains, “I don’t want to relax; I want to keep learning the trade.”
This is Bel-Aire’s third year participating in A Race for Maggie’s Place. On Sunday, October 8th we took to the streets of Tempe for the 5K Run/Walk. By registering and walking we are helping to give struggling mothers the opportunity to build a new life for themselves and enrich the life of their new child.
