The Blue Spruce Builder was founded in 2021 by Jeff Lorenz. Jeff grew up in the border city and has been involved in the community for almost 30 years. After his junior hockey career with the Lloydminster Bobcats, Jeff went on to the U of A Augustana on a hockey scholarship where he obtained his business degree. Upon the completion of his degree he realized what he truly loved doing was what he had done during his summer breaks, which was building houses.
