CSWEA President Carol Strackbein received this nice thank you letter from one our team members, which is reflective of the feeling of all of the team members! We thank the team members for the awesome job they have done at Operations Challenge ’06!
Dear Ms. Strackbein,
My name is Charles Wrigley Bynum; I am from the Village of Fox Lake, Il. I work at the wastewater plant in Fox Lake.
I was given the opportunity to compete in Dallas TX. In the Operations Challenge on the '06 Central States Operations Challenge Team. I considered it to be an honor and a privilege to represent the Central States WEA.
To my surprise, as well as my team mates surprise we took first place in the Lab event. Words cannot express my feelings. The World Series, Super Bowl, Stanley Cup, U. S. Open cannot compare to this. THANK YOU so very much for this opportunity!! I hope WE made YOU and the Central States WEA proud.
The trophy will be making a three state tour starting in Illinois then Wisconsin then Minnesota and then ending up at the Central States Headquarters. It's a beautiful trophy. I hope all of you at Central States enjoy it as much as we do.
Once, again....THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!
Sincerely,
Wrigley Bynum
Fox Lake NWRWRF
