We publish a newsletter, “Headtower News” three times a year. Click on any of the links below to see a sample of past newsletters. Each features photographs and stories contributed by members, and tells of the latest events and projects we are doing. Our publication logo "Head Tower News" was adapted from the original Pacific Constructors Inc. weekly safety publication produced for the workers on Shasta Dam c1938. The original logo, was the model for the sketch shown, and was drawn for our historical society by the late Ab Burns, a local artist, and one of the many construction workers on Shasta Dam.

The "Head Tower" was the ingenious design by Frank Crowe, Superintendent for Pacific Constructors, Inc. The company won the bid for the construction of Shasta Dam. The Head Tower operated cables to tail towers placed in different locations carrying buckets of cement to the construction site.
