Good News Friday!

Tonight is Imagine!’s Annual Holiday Party, which means that once again I have the distinct pleasure of recognizing greatness among Imagine! employees by honoring our Employees of Distinction.

This has been a unique year for our organization. The floods that hit us this fall brought out the best in so many employees, and there were many tales of employees acting in extraordinary ways to ensure the safety and well being of those we serve. This made selecting employees deserving of the unique honor of Employee of Distinction an especially difficult task this year. It was a year where “going above and beyond” was just the starting point. The 2013 class of Employees of Distinction truly went above and beyond above and beyond.

Therefore, I am extremely pleased to announce Imagine!’s 2013 Employees of Distinction. You will meet them below, along with a little information from each winner’s nomination to give an indication of why they were selected.

Congratulations to all of you, and thank you for all you do for our organization. I am honored to be counted as your co-worker.
