A Picnic...

Today was Sibley's Hospital Picnic!!! Sometimes I don't think people appreciate the events Sibley offers to the employee's, the generosity is unbelievable. Even in tough economic times our CEO, Bob Sloan continues to support the appreciation of our employees. This year, as in years past, the picnic is a time for all employees to break free from their desk chairs or nursing stations to come out and have fun, even if it's just for a half hour. The nutrition services staff who normally serve food in the cafeteria get a break from work too, I coordinate getting volunteers to serve the food. This year we needed 40 volunteers to serve from 11:30am-2pm, 10 people per half hour shift. They served hamburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs, pulled barbecue chicken, baked beans, potato salad, pasta salad, cole slaw, watermelon and cookies....tons of food! Most volunteers are VP's, Directors and upper level Managers, so it's great to see them in hair nets and aprons, everyone enjoys seeing them do some real work (just kidding). We also had snow cone machines, karaoke, meet and greets with Mystics players and more!!! Enjoy the pictures!
