Reminder: Sign up your team for Monster Mash! One of the best parts of Monster Mash is seeing Kroc departments get together to create their own “trunks” for the trunk-or-treat. So, get a group together and plan out your decorations! We will supply candy for you to hand out, and you are also encouraged to distribute information on your programs/services (please coordinate with Marketing Department). All employees will get dinner during/after the event! Please see Jon Shaner if you plan to participate.
Kroc Tailgate Party: The Employee Appreciation Taskforce invites you to celebrate this football season with a Tailgate Party on Thursday, October 18 from 12–1 PM!
We’ll meet outside the employee entrance (under the overhang). Hot dogs, chips & dip, and other snacks will be provided. Show your spirit by wearing your favorite team t-shirt (just don’t forget to wear your Kroc name tag).
Free Flu Shots [NOTE Date Change]: Walgreens will be at the Kroc Center offering free flu shots for employees and guests on Wednesday, October 24 from 10 AM to Noon. No preregistration is required; please bring your insurance card.
Do you like BBQ? You can help out The Salvation Army’s young professionals group, Echelon, by eating at Slows BarBQ in the Downtown Market on Thursday, October 25 from 5–8pm. The restaurant will donate 15% of your total bill to Echelon when you present the event flyer. [Managers: Click here to download flyer for your department]
Help our Neighbors at Brookside Elementary: The Kroc Center has a great relationship with Brookside Elementary, the GRPS building right behind us on Madison. There are a number of ways in which Kroc Krew members can help Brookside students and families, including mentoring, being a prayer partner, and much more. See Kayla Welch for information or ideas on how you can get involved.
