Earlier this week, the staff of the Press gathered to honor colleagues who have celebrated a special anniversary during the past fiscal year. The 21st Annual Employee Awards Ceremony provided an opportunity for managers to sing the praises of the honorees, as well as embarrass them a little bit in a few instances.
We're lucky to work with great people who have contributed to the Press' long-term excellence for a number of years. We congratulate them on their milestones and thank them for all they do each and every day. And for giving us a chance to have a party on a hot Thursday afternoon!
