40th Anniversary

By the 4^th decade of operation, the payroll had grown to 230 direct employees with an additional 100 trucking and logging contractors.  The modern plant had found a niche in the specialty markets.  On May 11, 1991, Gorman Bros. had a ‘family reunion’ – well, it actually was a 40^th anniversary celebration but it felt like a family reunion.  More than 600 present and past employees and their families joined in celebrating past achievements.  Cliff Serwa, member of the provincial legislature summed it up when he noted that people employed at the mill “worked with the Gormans not for them.”
