EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT: KIM

Introducing Mrs. Kim

 “Red” as we call her in the office is the complete Jack of all trades. Her favorites include The color Green, Seafood, and the Colts is her team. When she’s not at work, Kim enjoys hiking, camping, canoeing, crafts, and MMA Bowling. And she is a HUGE fan of Halloween. After being in this industry for 13 years, Kim sure has a lot of advice and knowledge for just about anything you need to know. Kim is a clean slate, “ I am what you see.”

Kim came to Commonwealth Event Company as a fresh mind with fresh ideas. Her best idea? The Linen Showroom!

Kim also in charge of keeping all of our Linens in perfect shape... Need help with that?

Richmond, Are you Ready for some Football?!

Finally, after much anticipation the day has finally arrived....

Open Day is here and it really has turned out to be the perfect day.  After just a little bit of rain over night and in the morning, the skies have cleared and it has become the coolest and least humid day that we have had in several weeks.  Check out this photo from the Richmond Times-Dispatch Redskins blog of the fans enjoying the festivities and the cooler weather. 

We don't have to wonder how excited some Richmonders are, there were crowds forming at 3:30 am this morning and according to this Diane Portee was first in line at 1:30 am.  That is dedication!

We have our own tent at camp and our very own Kim DeHart (who is a HUGE Skins fan) decorated it.  She claims she is not finished.  If there was an award for the most team spirit I think Kim would win it.

  This how our tent looked this morning, but Kim is thinking of adding more decorations.

Finally, we at Commonwealth Event Company are certainly not the only ones who are suffering basking in Redskins fever.  Look at what Kim spotted at the McDonald's on Broad 

(next to the CMOR):

We are happy to create a parking spot here in our lot, RGIII!

Weekend Away at Wintergreen

This is the perfect time of year to escape to the mountains.  We are lucky in Richmond, as the air gets heavier, we can be in the Blue Ridge Mountains in a matter of an hour or two.

 Wintergreen Resort hosts a Summer Music Festival we have built a stage and tent for it. 

Finished inside and out!

Wintergreen Performing Arts boasts that there are 230 event in 28 days.  

The festival runs July 8 - August 4.
