Welcome back! This issue of Engage is particularly exciting; I’m sure you’ll agree. It showcases, on many levels, how we continue to make community service and involvement vital to the culture of our City.
As a strong contingent of just over 600, we get stuff done, and then some: we accomplish our objectives; we lead fundraising initiatives, in both spirit and financial success; we win awards and accept accolades; we are recognized for our outstanding efforts and leadership in our neighborhoods; we interact with colleagues and on committees to share, learn, and empower others to extend beyond what they sometimes thought possible; we are our own ambassadors; and we embody what it means to represent, and represent well. At the changing of the season, let’s applaud ourselves and continue to look out for our colleagues and community, and concern ourselves with what we have shown matters most – our passion and our compassion. Enjoy this issue of Engage, help us pass it along to our colleagues who may not have a chance to read it online, and take a moment to consider what you do as a job very well done.

Together, we spend countless hours working and volunteering our time, energy and creativity to make our city a healthy, safe place to live, work, play and learn. And boy do we ever know how to raise the bar high.
