Pattie Kepner Named October Employee of the Month

The Arc of Orleans County’s PERKs (Proud of our Employees Recognition K(c)ommittee) team is proud to announce that Pattie Kepner has been named Employee of the Month for October 2010. As the Director of Family Support Services, Pattie Kepner was selected for her outstanding efforts in organizing Creep Camp. Pattie spent many extra hours working to coordinate this brand new Arc event. Pattie worked hard to ensure that there were plenty of hands on site when the excited crowds showed up!! Pattie started out the month a little afraid of what might happen down at Camp...be it chainsaws or mazes she couldn't find her way out of! After a week of practice Pattie was ready to do it all from organizing the kitchen to leading groups along the path through the dark woods and cabins!! She never did figure out the maze!!! Thank you Pattie for going above and beyond to ensure that Creep Camp was a huge success! Congratulations!
