It takes an extremely skilled team to create our imaginative projects. More importantly, it takes a team that works well together, each doing their specialized task and also helping each other. Lainey is our youngest team member and has been working with us since she finished high school a few years ago. Lainey’s critical role in our company is that of a support person, and this involves a wide variety of tasks. She does landscaping and housekeeping at the Hazelnut Inn, helps with the kids, as well as many jobs in the shop. Loved by all, and always eager, cheerful and helpful, she needs little direction. Lainey works full-time each summer, and part-time when she returns to the University each fall. This coming fall, she has a very full schedule in school as she does her third and fourth year studies and has decided to take a leave of three months at work. Today was Lainey’s last day at work (for now), and the entire crew was delighted to surprise her with a lunch barbecue to send her off to her studies. We wish Lainey well and look forward to her return in the new year.
