Honda Manufacturing of Alabama Marks 10th Anniversary
- 13 years ago
Alabama Gov. Bob Riley joined Lincoln, Ala., school students and community leaders at Honda Manufacturing of Alabama yesterday to raise a 10-year time capsule and celebrate a decade since the start of construction at the $1.4 billion facility.
"I want to tell each one of the associates, "Thank you." Thank you for not only what you've done for Honda and Lincoln and this area -- but for what you have done for the State of Alabama," Riley said to the crowd of community leaders, guests, HMA associates and Lincoln students.
The time capsule was presented to Honda officials on April 25, 2000 by students at three Lincoln schools to commemorate the start of construction and to memorialize a slice of life in Lincoln at the time of the groundbreaking.
