It's not only symbolic of the beginning of construction, but also represents the manifestation of what up to this point, lived in the world of concepts. You will want to choose a ceremonial shovel that represents the value of all the efforts behind the construction. Here's where our wide selection of styles and materials comes in. The blade (also called the scoop) part of the shovel and the socket, can be of chrome, steel, polished steel, or stainless steel and, it can be customized. Groundbreaking shovels in California don't have to be made out of gold to add shimmer!

The shaft, commonly called 'handle' is the part of the shovel that you hold, and comes in different sizes and is made from different types of wood depending on whether you want a light, ash wood or a darker tone. If you'll have people who are tall participating in the ground-cutting, you will want their shovels to have a long handle . The handle grip can be of the same wood as the handle, or a combination of wood with chrome or steel, or there may be no grip at all. We have all styles!

Setting up the Groundbreaking Location

 

California has a temperate climate conducive to outdoor activities where one can create an atmosphere of pomp and circumstance that reflects the glitz associated with the Golden State. The area where the groundbreaking shovel (or shovels) will be placed on display prior to the sod-cutting can be framed with stanchions and rope, and a carpet runner can be used to add an air of royal treatment for the guests and honorees. This setting can be completely uncovered, or under a stylish tent.
