Trying this post again! Here’s a montage of ways or team is social distancing during this health crisis.
Yesterday would have been a time for all of our team members to gather together for our monthly team meeting. This is usually a time for teams who work in various areas and don’t regularly see one another to re-connect and celebrate. Due to our social distancing policies, we were, unfortunately, unable to meet in person. However, that didn’t stop us from gathering virtually via video to celebrate the past month’s accomplishments!
One of our team-building activities for this month was for team members to submit photos of the ways that they are social distancing or focusing more on health and safety as virus precautions. Please enjoy this little video montage of those photos that were submitted.
Welcome to our new team members who joined us this past month: Bill Anderson Jr. (Landscape Team Member), Ethan Luther (Landscape Technician), Federico Roca (Carpentry Technician). We also have three returning workers: Toby Cox (Mowing Technician), Joe Stewart (Hardscape Team Member), and Matt Thompson (Floating Team Member). A promotion was awarded this month to Federico Roca, who after one week of service was promoted from Team Member to Technician. Way to go!
Happy Anniversary to Jeff Ruff who is celebrating four years with us this month. Congratulations also to Jesse Goodwin for winning the team participation prize. Finally, a huge congratulations to Kyle Schaffner who is our Superstar Award winner for the month of March. So proud of our team!
