Adam Ruff of Ely, Iowa, field supervisor at Price Electric, received a brand-new 2017 Ram Tradesman Crew Cab truck from Pat McGrath Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Fiat in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, in March. The truck is one of the prizes awarded to the 2017 ABC Craft Professional of the Year, which is presented annually to a construction craft professional who excels in his or her field while also demonstrating a commitment to safety, training and the merit shop philosophy each year. Ruff received the honor at ABC’s Careers in Construction awards ceremony on March 3 during ABC’s Workforce Week ’17. The truck is paid for by the award’s exclusive sponsor, Tradesmen International, with custom upgrades donated by ABC business partner Ram Commercial. “Adam Ruff is a tremendous leader and we are proud to honor his hard work for Price Electric and in his local community,” said 2017 ABC National Chair Chuck Goodrich, president of Gaylor Electric, Indianapolis. “Adam’s innovative approach to advancing the construction industry, commitment to the safe way being the only way, and to the wellbeing of everyone he comes into contact with in the field, office or shop, is truly impressive.”
