Work as a Team

In some lines of work, it is good to be your own person, but in construction working as a team gets the job done safer.  A construction crew should be people working together as a team to accomplish a goal not just people working at a project site.

Keep Your Hands on Safety

Like your eyes, your hands are one of the most important parts of your body. They are
involved in almost everything you do. Yet many things you do with your hands are done
without thought. Your hands have no fear. They will go anyplace they are sent, and they
only act as wisely as you. So, before you use your hands, think of their safekeeping.

Ladder Safety

From time to time, it is a good idea to step back and evaluate our safety guidelines with respect to all
elements of project safety. Ladders are an integral part of completing certain tasks and their use should
be well-thought out.

Surveying (Construction) Safety

Surveying is a relatively repetitive and low-hazard task on its own. However, surveyors on construction sites
face many different hazards while completing their work. It is important to evaluate the work environment
and eliminate as many hazards as possible prior to beginning surveying activities onsite.

New Equipment Safety

Every single day, new technologies and equipment are being introduced into the marketplace. These technologies and equipment eventually make it to our workplaces. It is important to thoroughly understand these new tools before beginning work. Often new tasks and equipment are a source of injury on the job.

Sonoma County Field of Honor

The Sonoma County Field of Honor was founded in 2024 by Brody Hansel. Inspired by
Healing Fields across the United States, this Field of Honor is intended to pay tribute to
veterans, active military and first responders. As these individuals have risked their lives to
ensure the safety and freedoms of ours, we honor them. In 2024, 1000 flags will be flown in
the names of loved ones sponsored by family and friends throughout the North Bay.
Proceeds from the sponsorship of flags are directed to support Veterans Services.

The Field of Honor is open to the public daily from 10 am – 2 pm November 10 through 16,
2024. An Opening Ceremony will be held November 10 from 11 am – 2 pm. Closing
Ceremonies and Flag Retirement will be held November 16 from 11 am – 1 pm. In
partnership with Wing and Barrel Ranch, the public is encouraged to visit the field,
experience the enormity of patriotism and honor those that have sacrificed.

Flag sponsorship can be made by visiting: www.sonomacountyfieldofhonor.org
Sonoma County Field of Honor looks forward to a legacy of honoring our Veterans, Active
Duty Military and First Responders for many years to come.

Thank you for your support.
