Building the future of the trades — one apprentice, mentor, and milestone at a time.
In recognition of National Apprenticeship Week, joint‑venture partners Commodore | Walsh (Commodore Builders and Walsh Brothers) hosted an appreciation lunch to celebrate the skilled workforce bringing the Veterans’ Home in Holyoke project to life.
We’re especially grateful to the on-site mentors who share their knowledge and guide apprentices as they grow in the trades. With Phase 1 nearing completion, it was a meaningful opportunity to pause and recognize the craftsmanship, collaboration, and dedication happening every day on site.
Since ramping up in 2024, we’ve proudly maintained a 20% apprentice ratio, a clear reflection of our commitment to workforce development and long‑term opportunity in the trades.
Thank you to our subcontractors, union building trades, and apprentice and pre‑apprentice program partners for continuing to move this important work forward.
