n the spring of 1979, at the age of 14,
Rick Phibbs became acquainted with in-
frastructure labour while working for his
father’s newly opened business, Circle P
Paving. Thirty-seven years later, this orga-
nization continues its legacy as a family-
owned business, providing quality service
in the Niagara/Hamilton area. Phibbs, now
the General Manager of Circle P Paving,
operates the company with the help of
his brother, Jim, and sister, Penny, out of
its headquarters in Stevensville, Ontario.
Even their 72-year-old father, Dwight, con-
tinues to play an integral part in the man-
agement of the company.
Circle P Paving has crafted a nook within
the world of paving and road maintenance.
