This year’s Employee Appreciation Week (EAW) festivities were just what it should be, memorable and loads of fun. The annual picnic possessed all of the necessary elements – good people, good food and plenty to be thankful for! It's always a treat when old and new members of Team Plano have a chance to enjoy each other's company and rub elbows over free food. 

Many of you turned in the daily crossword puzzles, word search sheets and scramble games. The luck of the draw from game puzzle entries go to:

Mike Lewis – Fire-Rescue 
Sarah Hogan – Municipal Courts
Larry Edens – Transportation, Engineering
Athena Ancheta – Environmental Waste Services
Sarah Miller – Library 

A record 328 people participated in the TP 5K 2023 Run to Glory. See the recorded times for this year’s walkers and runners.

Human Resources will distribute the 2023 EAW shirts, medals and prizes soon.

Senior Wellness Coordinator Michelle Gifford said, “The great thing about Employee Appreciation Week is we get to see so many employees engaging with one another at the picnic, having fun and catching up with colleagues they may not get to see on an average day. Virtually, we get a chance to cheer on our TP5K racers and encourage them to keep moving! We also get so many people participating in the virtual games, we even got submissions at 2 am! Love this week for Team Plano!”
