FOUR GENERATIONS OF CONCRETE INNOVATIONS 3 For more than 75 years the Kennedy name has been associated with innovation and excellence in the world of concrete. From our modest beginnings during the Great Depression, a family legacy has been built that grows stronger with each passing year. This year is no different. AsAlfred R., Kennedy, Sr; Lewis M. Kennedy, we look back on theGarfield Kennedy and Ernest Kennedy past, we remember thecontributions made by three successivegenerations of industry innovators. LewisM Kennedy might never have guessed theimpact his decision to open a concrete blockplant would have on the future of his family. LM Kennedy Concrete Plant (Philadelphia, PA) THE INNOVATOR Having observed the early plastic and rubber molds that were becoming more common in manufacturing Lewis’ son, Alfred R. Kennedy, Sr., and grandson, Alfred R.\"Big Al” Kennedy, Jr., identified a trend in the concrete industry to- ward a more scientific approach in manufacturing. They began investigating the use of these new molds. As a result of their investigation, in 1988, they startedAlfred R. Kennedy, Sr manufacturing a line of innovative wetcast products outside of Ashland, PA. By (1919-2005) 1990, Kennedy Concrete, Inc. had moved to its current location at 570 DutchtownRoad, Ashland, PA and began marketing custom and stock precast concrete products. THE ENGINEER With an earned degree in Engineering from Drexel, “Big Al” applied his knowledge of engineering to testing and manufacturing a stronger, more dense, weather resistant product. Some of today's product line has been independent lab tested and proven able to sustain between 8,000 to 10,000 psi. By the late 1990s, the company was growing rapidly, and \"Big Al” was quietly engineering another product that would eventually become our bestseller.Alfred R. “Big Al” Kennedy, Jr (1940-) Then in 1998, tragedy suddenly struck. Our plant in Ashland, PA was destroyed by a fire that wiped out the company's manufacturing capacity. Some might have thought this would be the end of Kennedy. But our dealers were already selling, and contractors were installing so much Kennedy product successfully that they patiently stood beside while we rebuilt the plant. Upon completion of the new plant \"Big\" Al in- troduced that new product under the name Blue Mountain Stone. The Blue Mountain Stone Line was engineered by \"Big\" Al not only to look and feel like quarried Pennsyl- vania Blue Stone, but also to meet the rigid demands of landscape architects. Meeting rigid demands and providing customers quality concrete products is a Kennedy way of life. As we look forward to a NEW YEAR, we look forward to bringing you a NEW GENERATION of CONCRETE INNOVATIONS!

Mix a 1 part cement to 5 parts sand mix (add no water). Place a thin layer on your compacted bed. Rake the thin layer leaving small peaks and troughs. Place the pavers on this bed and tamp with a rubber mallet or regular hammer with a board. (Do not strike too hard so that you don’t break the paver. If the paver is not level remove or add material in the base. The tamping is only to ensure that the mortar mix touches the entire base of the paver.) The depth and composition of the base will depend on the use of the paved area. For all uses, remove all vegetation. For pedestrian traffic: If the ground is solid and has good drainage, depth required will be: Paving stone thickness + thin layer of sand . For heavier traffic:

Please be careful. cutting. If pavers must be cut, the best way is with a circular saw equipped with a diamond blade, available at most building supply outlets. Do not try to cut all the way through the paver. Score each side of paver (depth depends on paver thickness, but 1/4” to 1/2” is usually enough). Place the scored paver over a wooden block and tap with a hammer.6 SEALING: It is not necessary to seal your pavers, but sealing does provide protection. A sealed paver usually looks better, has a better chance of weathering freeze-thaw cycles and holding up from acid rain and carbonization, and dirt is easier to remove. Some sealers make the paver more slippery or make it less slippery. (Finish Perfect Concrete Lawn Ornament Sealer, which can be used on pavers, is one that we use because it reduces the slipperiness of the pavers). Always test your sealer on a small area, so that if something goes wrong it will not have an effect the appearance of your pavement. (Some sealers will change the color of the pavers.) Clean the
