FSS SPOTLIGHT

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART ABOUT WORKING AT THE CLUB?

I enjoy communicating with customers because responding to customer requests allows me to improve my Catering services. I also enjoy arranging and providing the new services, and decorating.

WHAT DO YOU WISH THE MISAWA COMMUNITY KNEW ABOUT YOUR PROGRAMS?

I’m hoping you will all come on down to the Club, even if you’re not a Club Member, so you can attend the seasonal brunches, special events, nighttime bar scene, and of course, the lunch & dinner operations!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MEMORY AT THE CLUB?

My best memory working at the Misawa Club is working at the Air Force Ball and Navy Ball. Every year the decorations and table settings are awesome! At the end of the banquet, we join with the customers and dance along to the music. I'll never forget the people’s smiles.
