Presentation Speech

Good Morning! I am Travis Parrott and I want to welcome you all to the 2010 employee of the year ceremony here at the Wilmington Family YMCA. We pride ourselves on reaching out to the community and giving them a safe and fun environment for people to come and enjoy. Each year we give an to an individual who has shown exceptional performance in the workplace. We have very high standards for our employee’s and certain criteria must be met. The recipient who wins will receive a trophy and have there name placed on a plaque which will be displayed for all of our YMCA family to see. It’s such an honor to be able to give such an award to a most deserving person.

This year’s employee of the year has shown a hard work ethic, shown positive character, and has been a positive influence on other employees. She has single handedly become the face of what we pride our organizations core values on. In her four years with us she has worked with our summer camp program, lead several aerobics classes, and been a helping hand on many projects in our community. She is highly looked upon by all of us here and has been a true blessing to work with. Her hard work should not go unrecognized and all of us here are thankful to have you as apart of our family.

The selection process was determined by the employees as to who they felt was most deserving of the award. We chose to vote this way to ensure that each employee had a fair chance of winning the award as voted on by the employees.

Without further adieu I would like to welcome the 2010 Wilmington Family YMCA Employee of the Year recipient, Jamie King. Let’s give her a round of applause.
