A very special thank you to the members of the Employee Engagement Team (EET): Linda Gibson, Annie Griffin, Cierra Johnson, JaN'et King, and Donna Taylor! We are grateful for their dedication, time, and creativity in hosting and planning dynamic events that build camaraderie and add fun to the busy days! We ’ d also like to extend a sincere thank you to Susan Decker for spearheading the initiative! Susan ’ s vision and support for the committee will continue to make an impact for years to come. The CC&B Employee Engagement Team (EET) finished the year with these successful events, that included a perfect blend of humor, creativity, and team spirit:

• Ugly Sweater Day Contest - team members arrived in their most outrageous holiday sweaters. Winner: Michelle Johnson! (pic on left) • Secret Santa Gift Exchange - The EET created a holiday checklist for participants to share their hobbies, favorite things, and wish list. Team members drew names of colleagues and the gifts were discreetly left for recipients to find by each secret Santa. • Spreading Cheer - Team members mingled in the afternoon and enjoyed festive snacks provided by the EET. The efforts to create a cheerful atmosphere paid off, as team members felt the joy in the air and heard laughter throughout the office!

Thank you EET for making a difference in 2024 with these successful events!
