2025 was an incredible year for Solid Ground. We were recognized as the top security guard company in East Tennessee. We were also honored as a Top Workplace in the greater Knoxville area and doubled in size.

Behind the scenes, we’ve dealt with deaths, diagnoses, and even brain surgery. Our Solid Ground family rallied around and supported each other. What an honor it is to see people live out our mission statement: To honor and glorify God through our actions, attitude, and service.

At our recent Christmas party, Adam Hoffman and Kimberly Taliaferro were given the 2025 Gunman Award as Co-Employees of the Year.

We would also like to think Missy Dodds for being our guest speaker and sharing her story.

The entire Solid Ground family would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
