Hollman partners with Leukemia Texas for Holiday giving

The Christmas spirit is alive and well here at Hollman Inc!

Each Holiday season, the Hollman Team adopts and supports families for Christmas through the Nonprofit Organization: Leukemia Texas. 

Leukemia Texas is an independent nonprofit corporation dedicated to fighting the life-threatening blood cancer of leukemia through funding research and patient aid in Texas. The program currently serves hundreds of children and adults, per year, in the lone star state.

This holiday season, Hollman partnered with Leukemia Texas to support four local families who each have a child that is currently receiving leukemia treatment.  Our goal throughout this process is to give these families the gift of holiday magic by allowing them to focus on their primary needs and not stress over holiday gifting. This event is very special to Hollman’s heart as the entire company is given the opportunity to participate in gifting, wrapping, and delivery!  

As an extra surprise, The Hollman Family Foundation also donated $2,500 to each family.

        Project Insights: Michigan State University Munn Ice Arena

        Munn Ice Arena renovations give Spartan Hockey a world-class arena with the help of Hollman Lockers

        Home of Michigan State University’s Spartan Hockey team, Munn Ice Arena, has completed its largest renovation to date. After breaking ground in 2019, the renovation was halted due to the pandemic, now four years later, the hockey facility has gotten its much needed facelift. 

        When it came to the locker room renovations for the Spartans, one of the primary drives of the restoration was to create a space for the players to bond and to promote fellowship. Not only was space within the locker room necessary, but the lockers themselves needed to handle the large and heavy equipment involved with hockey.

        Hollman came into the picture, presenting a locker that was designed for MSU based on current player habits and needs. Having the locker room located in an ice arena, it was important to ensure the lockers were durable against the environment. The main component of the lockers were created with black Phenolic, a notoriously durable and water-resistant material; while the integrated benches were made with marine-grade vinyl cushions constructed to withstand water. Using these products will guarantee the lockers stay pristine even with heavy use. 

        Along with durability, the lockers were strategically designed to shelf and hang the necessary pieces of gear without overloading the unit. In general, hockey requires a lot of gear for protective purposes, meaning the design needed to be able to categorize a large volume. 

        Each locker includes three tiers of shelving made to hold helmets, all pads, gloves, and personal items. Below each integrated seat is a lift-up piece for additional storage. One of the unique features of the model is the face-mounted custom skate hooks placed on the lower portion of the locker, designed to keep skates obscured and localized in front of the lower ventilation system to help reduce dry time and bacterial growth. 

        “The thought process to have a changing area where each guy has their own space to put their stuff in so we can keep our locker room orderly, and that’s one thing we talked about as a group. Its super important to us to be a steward of that space…we can say thank you but I think the way you take care of it is the best way to show you appreciate it so that place is going be spotless”, Adam Nightingale, MSU Hockey Head Coach.

        Renovations to Munn Ice Arena were completed this past September, just in time for the Spartan’s regular season. With the facility’s upgrades and the help of Hollman, alums and players are sure to be proud for years to come.
