• Oh Hello March…

Without the mess there is no success! Reaching anything of significance will involve a messy and frustrating path. The progress is actually made when you think you aren't making any. It’s the messiness that makes it all worth it in the end. pic.twitter.com/YVRB3drWxG

• Leadership Thought:
  "The standard is built in the small things we choose not to overlook." - unknown

  • We’re crushing records, strengthening operations, and raising our standards daily. The momentum is real, and it is exciting to see the consistency taking shape across our teams.

  • Let’s stay focused on property standards, inside and out. Snow is sticking around for a bit, so please remain vigilant with salting and continue monitoring walkways, as daytime melting is creating overnight conditions. Ensure property walks are happening and pick up any debris. These details matter greatly.

  • Thank you for continuing to utilize the Incident Report on The Dash. Strong documentation protects our teams, our guests, and our operation, and keeps us steady as we move forward.

  • Let’s keep the momentum going...
