NEWTON, Kan., July 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Park Aerospace Corp. (NYSE-PKE) announced the retirement of Dale E. Blanchfield from the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. Blanchfield served on Park’s board since 2004. He also served as the Company’s Lead Independent Director since 2012.
Brian E. Shore, Park’s Chairman and CEO, said, “I am proud to tell you that Dale is a true friend of mine. I first met Dale in the mid-90s when he was President of The Bureau of Engraving in Minneapolis, an important customer of Park’s. I knew right then and there that Dale was my kind of guy. I still clearly remember things he told me at lunch on the day we met. Dale is old school…maybe a dinosaur of sorts in a world where honor and loyalty are uncommon virtues in my opinion. I will be Dale’s friend for life, but I will miss him on our board very much. The board won’t be the same without Dale. Dale always had my back and Park’s back. I doubt Park will ever have another Dale. Congratulations, Dale, on your retirement. All the best to you and your family from your friends at Park. See you soon…”
