“Community has continued to grow throughout the economic recession, with its diverse profile of high-value, high-performance outdoor and installation products,” remarked Howze.  “I’m confident that under Tim’s leadership, Community will not only continue its strong performance, but start an upward trajectory of unprecedented growth.  Tim will be the major driving force in the company’s future.  I’m thrilled to welcome him to Community.”
