Olney Hamilton Hospital Celebrates Topping Out

October 7, 2025

Skiles Group recently celebrated a major milestone at the new Olney Hamilton Hospital: the placement of the final structural beam on this 40,000 SF greenfield facility.

Topping out ceremonies honor the moment a building reaches its highest point—and in Olney, it also marks the community’s commitment to strengthening rural healthcare for future generations.

It was a privilege to celebrate alongside:
▪️Olney Hamilton Hospital staff, board of directors, and CEO Mike Huff
▪️City of Olney officials, including the Mayor and City Council
▪️Our project partners at GUIDE Architecture, LLC, Certus Consulting Engineers, and Trinity Hughes Construction
▪️Medical staff, including Chief of Staff Dr. Mark L. Mankins and Board President Dale Lovett

Speeches, signatures, and the ceremonial beam—complete with an evergreen tree and American flag—capped off a great day honoring teamwork, progress, and community impact.

Thank you to our Skiles Group team members who were there to represent: Tony Dougherty, Brent R. Brown, Zachary Wymer, Bradley Dominey, and Brian Webster. And thanks as well to our dedicated trade partners.
