The 3t° annual Athena Awards was a
tremendous success. Karen took on this project
from start to finish. The event was perfect and
the City received high praises. We are lucky to
have Karen.
For doing an excellent job in producing an
agenda, sending out notifications, and setting up
for the 1' Cove Commission meeting, during the
unexpected absence of the Secretary to the City
Manager.
Congratulations and thank you for a job well done
in pushing the landscape and related projects on
the eastern part of Country Club Drive near the
new school.
In appreciation for volunteering to assist in
placing a sculpture and artwork for the Art
Department.
This year's election brought out a record number
of voters and larger than normal volume of calls.
These ladies did an excellent job in handling all
this with the utmost courtesy.
For consistent outstanding customer service as
described in an e-mail by a resident.
These four employees came to the rescue of the
YMCA at the recent Golf Cart Parade by lending a
helping hand when desperately needed, without
being asked. A letter of appreciation was
received by Steve Orozco.
