The members of Team Sumerset took a break from building the best houseboats in the USA to give back to Somerset, Kentucky and Pulaski County. On September 18, 2007, fifty-three members of Team Sumerset donated units of life saving blood to the Central Kentucky Blood Center. They were honored to be joined by customer Don Stroud, who contributed two units of his rare blood type. Team Sumerset reached 143 percent of their donation goal and had several first time donors, including CEO Steve Lochmueller.
