Hello everyone,

Hope your week is going well. Please take a look at the items below.

New Employee Website Password

It’s been a minute since we’ve had a new website password. In lieu of the coming snow, the password is  appropriately labeled SnowyWinter2020!

Attached is the Welcome Letter for individuals that have enrolled in the VSP Vision Insurance.

We are aware that the 2019 W-2s are now available on Paychex. If you have any questions regarding your W-2, please feel free to email Human Resources. HR is busy wrapping up the year end and will respond to these questions by the end of next week. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Montpelier

If you are here before our Sparklers arrive, please check to see if the front walkway needs to be shoveled or salted.

If you are the last one in the office, please make sure both doors are fully locked, all lights are shut off, and both thermostats have been turned down.

Penguin Plunge!!!

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out to ask for help in talking up the Penguin Plunge! I usually start my campaign early to get people to join and talk it up, but I’m lagging this year. I’m reaching out to you because you are either on the team currently, have been in the past, or are just a really great cheerleader for many things. I’m hoping you can get some momentum for people to join the team and/or come out and cheer us on.  If you want to join, go to https://give.specialolympicsvermont.org/team/258688

My plan is to get the team together the morning of the jump and have some snacks and drinks to give us some courage! It’s SOOOOO much fun…you feel like a rock star with the whole crowd cheering and your adrenaline is pumping and it’s all for a good cause that a lot of our clients benefit from. LET’S DO THIS!!!!! If you either join or get someone else to join the team there will be some Kazoo points in it for you!!!

Spread the word!

Jenn

Last but not least, we have a new administrative staff at the Williston office, Wendy! She has asked that this short bio be included in this week’s Hoopla:

My name is Wendy Bronner, and I am the new Office Manager. You may see me seated at the front desk, answering phones, or giving staff breaks. When I am not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, visiting with friends, or doing yoga. Feel free to say hello and introduce yourself if you see me. I am happy to be a part of the Sd family!

Welcome, Wendy!

Remember to keep shouting out your fellow staff on Kazoo! Spend and earn those points! Enjoy the rest of the week. Thank you, as always, for your continued hard work in making a difference in the lives of your students!
