Volunteerism!

As a member of the Pinconning & Linwood Area Chamber of Commerce, I have been very involved with organizing a Pinconning community event. The CheeseTown Festival takes place over Father’s Day weekend and is centered around the 26th Annual CheeseTown Challenge, a 5 mile and 2 mile foot race (www.cheesetownraces.org). The festival will include inflatable fun rides, a beer tent with entertainment, a parade, a CheeseTown Dad contest, a macaroni and cheese cook-off, helicopter rides, a Father’s Day breakfast – all kinds of activities for all age groups. None of this would happen without some tireless volunteers and some generous business owners. It feels good to be involved in my local community and it feels great to be part of a team that likes to have fun!

Stressed Out?

What is the stress level like at your workplace? Employees are worried about finances, about getting all of the work done with fewer people, and about whether or not they will continue to have a job. Workplace stress is the most frequently cited reason U.S. employees consider leaving their jobs. According to two surveys by Watson Wyatt Worldwide, employers acknowledge that stress is affecting business performance, but few are taking steps to address it. Is your company doing anything to help employees handle the stress?
