Kudos to these team members in the Orlando region who were tremendous assets for their site during a hurricane.

Also, during the appreciation lunch, the client recognized the entire team for a job well done in many aspects of their rapidly changing community and acknowledged George Perez as the Officer of the Quarter at the site.
