Holiday Party
The Annual Christmas Party is one of the most anticipated events of the year at Pat Williams Construction. Each December, employees from all three office locations come together for a special evening of celebration, reflection, and camaraderie. The event features a festive dinner, drinks, music, and gifts, creating a joyful and relaxed atmosphere for everyone to enjoy.

More than just a holiday gathering, the Christmas Party is a time to recognize the hard work and dedication of our team throughout the year. It’s a chance to step away from the busy pace of the jobsite, reconnect with colleagues from across the company, and share laughter and memories in a family-like setting.

This tradition reflects the close-knit culture we’ve built at Pat Williams Construction—where every employee is valued, and where we take time to celebrate not just our accomplishments, but each other. The Christmas Party is a true reflection of the spirit of our company: hard-working, people-focused, and united.
Thanksgiving
Each Thanksgiving, Pat Williams Construction gathers as a company to share a meal that goes far beyond food—it’s a celebration of gratitude. Around the table, team members pause from the busyness of projects and deadlines to reflect on the year’s blessings, from meaningful work to the people who make it possible.

This tradition reinforces the value of community, reminding everyone that the company’s strength lies not only in the buildings it constructs but also in the relationships it nurtures. By coming together in gratitude, the Thanksgiving meal affirms Pat Williams Construction’s commitment to caring for its people and honoring the teamwork that drives its success.
Crawfish Boils
Every Spring, Pat Williams Construction hosts its Annual Crawfish Boil at CM Farms in Dry Creek, Louisiana. This family-friendly event brings together employees from all locations for a day of great food and quality time. With farm animals, a corn pit, and a variety of kid-friendly activities, it’s a fun and relaxed atmosphere that allows employees and their families to connect outside of the workplace.

The Crawfish Boil is a cherished tradition that strengthens our sense of community and reinforces the close-knit culture we value at Pat Williams Construction.
Mardi Gras Parades
At Pat Williams Construction, we proudly celebrate Louisiana’s vibrant culture by participating each year in the Mardi Gras Merchants Parade in Lake Charles. This exciting event has become a favorite company tradition—one where employees, friends, and family come together to let the good times roll on our float to throw beads and enjoy the festive atmosphere.

It’s a lively tradition that brings fun, energy, and teamwork to the forefront—allowing employees to celebrate Louisiana culture and make lasting memories together.
Alzheimers Walks
HONORING DONNA WILLIAMS

At Pat Williams Construction, participating in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s together is a cause close to our hearts.

In loving memory of Donna Williams, the devoted wife of our founder Pat Williams and mother of our current President Jason Williams, we proudly walk as Donna’s Memory Marchers to raise awareness and support for those affected by Alzheimer’s. Donna courageously battled Alzheimer’s for over a decade before passing peacefully in September 2024. Her strength, warmth, and love left a lasting impact on all who knew her.

To honor her legacy and help advance the fight against Alzheimer’s, our team joins both the 2024 Walk to End Alzheimer’s – SWLA in Lake Charles and other local awareness events, such as the Pilot Club of Leesville’s Walk for Alzheimer’s Awareness at Dogwood Park. Through these walks, we not only remember Donna, but also stand with the millions of families facing the daily challenges of Alzheimer’s.

We are committed to making a difference—by raising funds, spreading awareness, and walking together toward a future without this disease.
