Our Fun Ambassadors met a few weeks ago.  This group of volunteers from across the region was put together to help us all CONNECT more through FUN.

The group put together their first EVENT and it is a Christmas tree decorating contest.  All service locations are encouraged to submit their entries by 12/15/22 at 12p.  Winners to be announced 12/16/22!  Winners will earn a Pizza Party - may break entries into categories IF we get enough submissions!

Our fun ambassadors are working to plan some staff “meet up” events in 2023 where we can come together to socialize and network.  We are looking for inexpensive ideas to explore.  In addition, we are hoping to do more fun contests, and events around a wide variety of holidays – if you have a holiday or other national day you’d like to see celebrated within the region, please reach out to one of the fun ambassadors with your ideas!

Current Fun Amassador Team members: Marcus Weldy, Barb Lane, Hanna LaBelle, Stephanie Broderson, & Dawn Sorrell.  Interested in becoming a Fun Amassador?  Contact Buffie LaBelle, RD!
