Our Archaeology and Environmental team had a great time out in the field partnering with the State Archaeologists from the Alabama Historical Commission, and representatives from Mobile County, Alabama, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District at the newly acquired Duck Hill Site in Coden.

Field assessments like this are a critical step in supporting regional beneficial use and coastal marsh restoration projects. By working alongside our agency partners early in the process, we ensure that vital shoreline preservation efforts seamlessly align with the careful protection of our coast's unique cultural and environmental resources.

What an incredible turnout for the 24th annual Thompson Fishing Rodeo on Dauphin Island earlier this month. Despite some choppy weather, anglers managed to land a few fish. As always, the big winner was the Thompson Foundation. The fishing rodeo raises funds for the foundation and this year netted $101,500!

Big thanks to our employees and those of our affiliated companies, as well as our clients, friends, and family, for making this year's event a success. Catch you next year!
