Giving back to the community is an important priority to us.
DRYCO is committed to giving back to the Greater Bay Area community—over the years we have averaged more than four community projects a year. Our employees have the same spirit, which extends not only into the local communities where they live but also across borders into other countries. Below is a sampling of the community projects that DRYCO has been involved with this past year in 2011:
Joe Lacob Basketball Court
On April 27th, 2011 the Joe Lacob basketball court was unveiled at Haight Elementary in Alameda. The Good Tidings foundation and the Golden State Warriors teamed up with DRYCO to rebuild the basketball court at the school. Click here to watch the dedication ceremony
Mosswood Park Oakland
On May 25, the Good Tidings Foundation, Golden State Warriors and Kaiser Permanente teamed up with DRYCO to renovate two new basketball courts at Mosswood Park in Oakland. Some of the great legends began their journey to the NBA in the park such as Bill Russell, Jason Kidd, Gary Payton and Dwight Gooden. DRYCO refurbished Mosswood's tennis courts as well, once the basketball courts were completed.
