Wilber celebrates with the McLean County Chamber of Commerce

Tuesday May 1, 2012

At 11:00 on May 4th, Ken Wilber will be cutting the ceremonial ribbon in front of Wilber’s new home office.   Wilber’s new 20,000 square foot facility located at 210 Landmark Drive in Normal is equipped to house 100 employees.   In an effort to attract new employees and reward current employees, the office has been outfitted with amenities normally found at companies such as Google and Facebook.   There is a relaxation room and a “fun” room that can be used by employees during breaks.  Many of our visitors have asked, “Are you taking applications?”
The additional room in the new building has allowed us to expand our client portfolio.

If you can’t make it over on May 4th, contact us to arrange a private tour of the facility.

Wilber Gives Back

Tuesday Nov 16, 2010

We decided to start a ‘Wilber Gives Back’ program. We had our first outing in November 2010. We were able to go to the Home Sweet Home mission and serve lunch. Over 20 people showed up to volunteer. It was a great opportunity for us to be able to serve others in our community. Ken donated all of the food for that lunch, and we were able to feed around 75 people. It was very exciting to get to know some of the people that live and work at the mission. It was a lot of fun working in the kitchen together. We were able to cook and serve food, clean up, wash dishes, mop floors, clear and wipe tables, and some of the guys were even able to help unload some trucks.
