We’re so thankful for our amazing YBP/Chesapeake Minerals/Principio Asphalt family—you make these 90 years possible, and we couldn’t do it without you! 💛

Principio Asphalt had the pleasure of hosting the Harford County Contractors Association’s (HCCA) Membership Dinner Meeting at our plant on Thursday, May 15th. Nearly 60 attendees enjoyed a beautiful evening filled with great company, barbecue from Mission BBQ, and perfect weather. Following dinner, the 2025 HCCA Scholarship recipients were recognized during a special presentation, and guests were treated to a tour of the plant.

A big thank you to everyone on the planning team for their hard work in making this event a success!
