The third-place winner was Dan Perkins Construction Inc., Ishpeming, Michigan, for its work with Bay Cliff Health Camp, which helps children ages 7-17 overcome handicaps and become more independent in a summer camp setting that is fun and challenging. The company replaced the roof of the camp’s arts and crafts building. CNA awarded Dan Perkins Construction with $2,500 for its charity. 

Additionally, the winner of the People’s Choice category was chosen via online voting. Foster Contracting Inc., Indianapolis, won the People’s Choice Award for its work with Isaiah 117 House.
