Iroquois Campaign - A Real
Gas!
|
 |
Iroquois committee members and wrap-up speakers
celebrated another tremendous Iroquois campaign.
|
Iroquois Gas completed another remarkable campaign on behalf
of Valley United Way with a barbeque luncheon to celebrate results that
showed a remarkable 91% participation rate and a matching corporate
contribution. As usual, Iroquois' success was directly tied to an enthusiastic
and creative committee of dedicated employees. Members of the
committee included:
|
Griffin Hospital's Mobile Health Resource Van was
a popular campaign addition this year. Pictured are (L to R) Beverly
Condor and Gary Valentine from Griffin's Cardiac Rehab Center and
Daun Barret, Parish Nurse Coordinator. (Click picture for larger

The committee planned a vibrant two-week campaign that began with an ice
cream social on October 6 and concluded with the luncheon on the 15th.
In between, employees participated in a variety of special events that
included a health fair featuring Griffin Hospital's new Mobile
Health Resource Van. They also cooked and ate at an International
Luncheon, played basketball at their own hoop contest, and learned more
about themselves by participating in a special Trivia Contest. They also
found time to stage a book fair with proceeds going to United Way. |
United Way Executive Director Jack Walsh praised Iroquois for their
ongoing support of Valley United Way and the Valley community. He said, "They
have been involved in the community since their first day in Shelton, and
that involvement goes well beyond the incredible campaigns that they run".
In addition to the campaign, he praised them for their
leadership role on the Corporate Volunteer Council and their support of the
Healthy Valley 2000 project that will lead to the a major festival
celebrating the Valley's river heritage on Columbus Day weekend in 2000.
