Downtown Matters: Ambassador Spotlight
CCSID Highlights Ambassador Efforts
Ben Barker, Operations Manager for Capital Crossroads and Discover SIDs, is proud to recognize the hard work of the Outreach Team and the Clean and Safe Ambassadors.
“There is so much to be said for the entire program,” said Barker. “The Outreach Team is always looking for new ways to extend services to those in need, and the Clean and Safe Team and the Special Projects Division exhibit such professionalism. I continue to expect great things.”
There are two Ambassadors whose hard work and dedication deserve special recognition.
Ambassador of the Quarter: Gil “Carlos” Pilier
Capital Crossroads congratulates Gil “Carlos” Pilier on his promotion to Utility Ambassador. In this position, he will be cross trained to handle the wide variety of services offered by both Capital Crossroads and Discovery SIDs. This will ensure that he is qualified to substitute for other Ambassadors when they are out, as well as provide services with the Special Projects Team.
Carlos is a valuable member of the Capital Crossroads team and this assignment demonstrates our confidence in his work ethic and ability to handle a variety of duties. In recognition of his hard work and abilities, Carlos was also named the Ambassador of the Quarter for the first quarter of 2010.
Ambassador Spotlight and Winter Warrior: Paul Denmark
Capital Crossroads recognizes Paul Denmark for his hard work and willingness to help whenever and wherever needed. Paul is currently working as a Team Leader, but he makes himself available to take on other duties, such as leading a shift or tackling special projects. For example, Paul took on maintenance of the bikes used in the Bike Patrol Program.
Due to his willingness to charge into the elements during Columbus’ especially harsh winter to ensure that downtown pedestrians could safely pass through the crosswalks and bus stops throughout the district, Capital Crossroads created a new award with Paul as its first winner. Congratulations to Paul for earning the first ever “Winter Warrior” award. Mother Nature never stood a chance!
