About

CriTek Engineering Group, P.C. is a minority owned engineering firm focused on providing professional civil and environmental engineering services to promote safe drinking water and effective wastewater management. We serve public and private clients of every size with a strong focus on the water lifecycle from the source through the tap, collection and treatment. We work with you and your design team throughout all phases of your project to ensure that deadlines are met, innovative solutions are found, cost are controlled, and expectations are exceeded. CriTek offers comprehensive engineering services for a variety of projects. Our team can provide management services. With comprehensive pipeline, pump station, and treatment plant expertise, we’ve worked on projects of all size.

Core Capabilities

Technical Review

As a completely independent engineering company not affiliated with any other groups and not selling licensed technologies, CriTek is ideally qualified to provide critical engineering evaluation before project decisions are finalized. In a technical review role, any process change requests are forwarded to our engineers for comment. This helps ensure that the client understands what the impact may be as changes and alternatives are suggested. Many times there is great pressure to hold down costs as the civil, mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation details are developed. The temptation to remove seemingly inconsequential components can lead to off-spec product, inadequate throughput, high operating cost, etc. CriTek is able to help prevent such problems simply by serving as a technical reviewer.

Engineering Design

With aging infrastructure, growing regulatory requirements, and ongoing security concerns, water and wastewater utilities face increasingly difficult challenges. CriTek is a full service consulting company with the knowledge, experience, and commitment to provide such clients with total infrastructure services and solutions at a competitive cost. Our services include design and detailed engineering, pre-bid engineering support, procurement support, construction support, and as-built engineering. Having worked for both large and medium sized clients, our team has gained broad experience. We have distinguished ourselves by providing timely and quality detail engineering services with intimate industry knowledge.

Construction Management

CriTek offers pre-construction and construction management services for projects ranging from water treatment and conveyance to sewer collection and lift stations. Our capabilities can meet each owner’s specific project needs that supports the owner’s vision and preferences. Whether CriTek provides staff to support the owner’s organization or provides full construction management for projects we are committed to providing solutions to construction issues in a team-oriented environment. For our clients CriTek offers a single point of reference to avoid engineering/contractor conflicts; is committed to proactive community outreach to build trust; assists in permitting to meet regulatory concerns and requirements.

Eastern Music Festival

PO Box 22026, 27420

About

For six decades, Eastern Music Festival (EMF), a nationally recognized classical music festival and summer educational program, is produced each summer on the campus of Guilford College and other venues in the Greensboro, North Carolina, area. EMF is distinguished by its accomplished faculty, exhilarating repertoire, and world-renowned visiting artists under the artistic direction of Gerard Schwarz. A powerful teaching institution, EMF provides encouragement and guidance to hundreds of young musicians from across the country and around the globe as they take their first steps towards careers in the performing arts. EMF’s five-week 60th anniversary season is June 26 – July 31, 2021.

Why Greensboro?

When Sheldon Morgenstern established The Guilford Musical Arts Center, now Eastern Music Festival, in 1961 on the campus of Guilford College, he had one goal: to start a summer music camp where the study would be oriented towards the student, something he had not experienced at other such summer camps. With the assistance of Dr. Clyde Milner, then-president of Guilford College, and a group of equally passionate friends and family, Morgenstern was able to raise enough money and support to hold the first camp during the summer of 1962. Seventy-two students and fourteen professional faculty members participated in the first year. Since that time the number of students has grown to include over 200 young artists and 75+ professional faculty musicians from across the country and abroad. 

His passion for teaching music led him back to Greensboro and to the campus of Guilford College. From 1961 until 1997, Morgenstern remained the music director and primary conductor for Eastern Music Festival. His passion continues to live on in the hearts of our faculty and staff, young artists, and supporters. 

Throughout its 60-year history, EMF has maintained and realized its quest for excellence – in performance, education, programming, and execution. Faculty members participate in the students’ curriculum in a variety of ways, including teaching private lessons, coaching chamber music, teaching theory, or leading masterclasses. 

Eastern Music Festival’s nearly 10,000 alumni include many who have continued in professional careers in music, as well as a variety of careers in the performing arts, business, health care, higher education, and law.

Did you know?

EMF is thrilled to be among the first arts organizations in our community to return to live and in-person concerts and events this summer. After canceling the 2020 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, EMF is coming home to the Guilford College campus from June 26 through July 31, 2021. EMF anticipates a safe, socially distanced summer season after months of considered planning for the health and well-being of the students, faculty, staff, and audience members. This summer’s EMF will look a little different. The 2021 season will include over 35 performances featuring works for ensembles of varying shapes and sizes. Concerts and recitals will be performed in compliance with current local, state, and federal health guidelines, including fewer performers on the stage, social distancing, and wearing face masks. Most performances will be in Dana Auditorium on the Guilford College campus and limited to 200 socially distanced seats per show, in accordance with current venue capacity restrictions. 

Individual tickets will go on sale Thursday, May 20, 2021, online at easternmusicfestival.org/tickets. All tickets will be reserved-in advance touchless/paperless to ensure the safety of patrons and staff. Complete program details and featured soloists to be announced later this spring and will be available online at easternmusicfestival.org/calendar. 

(In 2021, all programs, dates, artists, venues, and prices subject to change.)
