Cheer Abounds During Holiday Spirit Week

By Michelle Williams, Deputy Clerk & FOIA Officer

The Orange County Administration Office created a Holiday Spirit Week to drive camaraderie and cheerfulness organization - wide for the 2020 holiday season. Beginning on Monday, December 14th, employees were encouraged to wear festive footwear, holiday headgear, magical masks, and snazzy sweaters. There was much excitement from staff and several submitted photos. In 2019, an Administration Office staff member put together a Holiday Door Decorating Contest for the Gordon Building, and it was a success! With all that has happened in 2020, the Administration Office thought it would be a great idea to include every department in this year ’ s contest. Participants were invited to decorate as a group, department, or individually. There were nine (9) entries, with six (6) departments and thee (3) teleworkers from the Department of Social Services. Awards were given to the Virginia Cooperative Extension Office for Most Festive, the Gordon Building Maintenance Staff for Most Creative, and a special award, created by County Administrator, Ted Voorhees, was awarded to Sabrina Gundros with the Department of Social Services for Most Inspirational Remote Office.
