After an incredible 33-year journey with Wodens, we bid farewell to Tony Carbone, one of our esteemed Site Supervisors. Last Saturday night (10th May 2025), Wodens held a celebration dinner at the Water’s Edge Fine Dining Restaurant in Parkes, ACT.
The event was attended by Wodens senior company staff along with some former employees.

Tony’s dedication and expertise have been instrumental in completing numerous projects, each contributing to the growth and success of our company. His commitment to excellence and his ability to train and mentor countless individuals have left a lasting impact on all of us. Tony’s leadership and unwavering work ethic have set a high standard for everyone at Wodens. As he embarks on this new chapter, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for his years of service and wish him all the best in his well-deserved retirement. Thank you, Tony, for your remarkable contributions and for being an inspiration to us all. Enjoy your retirement!

Tony’s retirement was celebrated alongside six other long-serving employees, whose combined experience of over 200 years has been pivotal in shaping Wodens into the company it is today. Their collective dedication and hard work have been the backbone of our success.
