Crest Ink - Volume 30 - Number 04

Volunteer Spotlight: Becky Henson The Jack Mabley Center Steve Caudillo, M.Ed.ATC, of The Jack Mabley Center in Dixon, IL, presents Becky Henson (Quality Assurance Coordinator, Ingredient Division) with a Certificate of Appreciation for the time our Crest Foods Ingredient QA Lab employees have spent volunteering there. Steve invited Becky as a representative for Crest Foods to their Volunteer Appreciation reception in May. Crest has done

some nice things for this group in the past year including: Signing Christmas Cards for residents, donating snacks and drinks for parties, donating money for their pancake supper, donated a quality microphone as a Christmas 2017 gift. Becky has taken all the steps necessary to be ‘vetted’ through the Mabley Center in order to become a volunteer leader. This means she can bring others with her to volunteer their time and talents. We thank all those who have shared their time with the clients of The Mabley Center. Any Crest Foods employee who would like to volunteer at the Mabley Center is free to contact Becky at extension 295. She will be happy to coordinate the Crest Foods ef- forts on behalf of The Mabley Center. The Mabley Center serves a broad spectrum of individuals with behavioral and medical needs. The campus is laid out on an interior oval pathway that is defined by trailing rails. It has an exterior roadway circling the campus. Trail- ing rails are designed for use by residents who are blind or visually impaired to promote more independent move ment and navigation around the campus. Walking Club Update

We’ve participated as a group in three more races since the last update, which leaves us with only two more to go this October! The Tough Run at the White Pines Horse Ranch was just as muddy and hot as we expected it to be, and our team ended up defending their Corporate Challenge title at the Reagan Run this year! We also had a good turnout for the Amboy Depot Dash this Au- gust. A full wrap-up will be included in the next issue, but we are on track to be able to give a large donation to Sinnis- sippi Centers this year!

We had 45 employees participate in the Reagan Run 5K this summer. Matt Richardson, Jared Stumpenhorst, Matthias Kemmeren, Chris Mooney and Val Smith ended up winning the Corporate Challenge this year!
