Its fall already, and in the Pacific Northwest that means the winter claims season is around the corner. At Halo, we pride ourselves on having expertly trained crews ready to respond to any type of emergency service our customers may need. On Friday, September 11th, 2009, we held the first training session of the season for our field crews on the topic of chainsaws, tree removals, and tree impacts. It was a refresher course for some and new hands on training for others.

At our monthly company meeting, Amy Grebin was recognized by her coworkers as our newest recipient of the Employee of the Month Award. She was recognized for her eagerness to help others and for always being available to her coworkers to answer questions and assist them. She has also been recognized as a leader for Halo during the process of introducing our new, online, collaborative program. She learned the system quickly, has become very efficient at it, and is utilizing it to become a better Project Manager; all while helping others to learn the program. Amy has grown not only as an employee, but also as an individual in the 2 1/2 years she has been with Halo. All of management is very proud of Amy's growth and are very excited to see what her future holds.
