Sara Armstrong (Box Office) – Throughout the run of BUDDY, Sara was a huge asset to the box office. At the end of August, the box office went through a system upgrade. Sara helped her fellow co-workers in the following weeks with any questions that would arise to the changes while keeping up with her assigned tasks and duties. The start of the show also brought the box office three new hires and Sara took a huge role in their training. Never having the opportunity to sit in and watch a box office training session, Sara took the request to step in as trainer in hand and flourished. She passed on all her Box Office knowledge as well as her fantastic customer service skills. Sara continues to be a mentor daily, making herself available to help with any questions or concerns as they arise. By taking on this important role, this allowed Erica as the lead trainer and supervisor, to focus her attention on all the changes that were happening in package with the Audience View upgrade, and the other important tasks that required her focus and attention. For this and many other reasons, Sara deserves to be recognized as Associate of the show.

Scott Hedrick (Dish Room) –

During the run of BUDDY, Scott was very helpful in doing some of the duties that are normally done by the bus staff or the server staff in addition to his regular dish room job. This allowed the restaurant to utilize those associates in other areas or to assist in duties that are normally not done until after 7:00 when we have very limited bus staff. Scott has been filling the soup warmers each shift, as well as taking full carts of dishes to the chair storage room to help make more room in the dish room for staff to work. He has also been helping with the cleanup of the cook’s line on Friday nights, a job usually designated to bus staff who are 16 or older, but since we are very limited in that area right now, Scott’s help has been huge and much appreciated. Scott is very deserving of being recognized for his extra work.
