Sowing Seeds.

Building Community.

At Minick Materials we are blessed to be able to work with non-profit organizations as they coordinate groups, events, and projects that serve the community. 
 
From builds that enhance and beautify our local area, to projects that sow into values and create resources for the next generation - we are honored to give with cheerful hearts, and an overflowing expression of thanks. 

Eagle Scouts at Hefner Trails 

OKC Eagle Scout, Billy Vega was inspired to install a park bench as one of several mountain bike trail features for his Eagle Scouts Project. The Eagle Scouts Project is meant to give the scouts an opportunity to show leadership, and use organized planning and development skills

Billy chose this as his project because "it makes a great addition to the area and helps serve as an anchor to create a place for the Bluff Creek community to gather and connect, while participating in a healthy family-friendly activity." He says he "can't wait to see how this will provide a gathering place for both new and veteran riders to learn and practice their skills."

Mustang Creek Elementary

"You Belong" Garden 

The Students at Mustang Creek also participated in painting their own rocks to be added to their school's You Belong garden.

Each class started with a uniform color background, then each student made their rock special with their own unique design. What a beautiful way to encourage their individuality, while still nurturing a sense of togetherness among their peers.

Norman Eagle Scouts Sensory Garden

For his Eagle Scouts sensory garden project at Dimensions Academy in Norman, Matthew chose to build a labyrinth around the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 grounding technique, a method designed to manage acute stress and reduce anxiety, involving identifying 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste.

It’s something Hutchison says he knows will leave a lasting mark on the school.
