Send an email to RJ Kroc if you see someone going above and beyond for our guests! Here are some examples observed recently:
- Lots of new members have been enjoying the Wednesday and Friday open swim times. Great job to the aquatics team for making sure everything runs smoothly.
- Multiple staff members have been out sick or on vacation recently. Thank you to everyone who has helped cover shifts in other departments.
- Last February, Kevin Chilton organized a resource table for Black History Month in the lobby. A member recently told Kevin that one of the books he took from that table helped change his life! Great job, Kevin!
