October Volunteer of the Month & Pat on the Back Recipients          

Crystal Thomas is named as Volunteer of the Month for October. Her League placements this year include Back to School Bonanza, Vision Screening, and JLL Fun Run. Two of the placements she agreed to during placement time and one had a last minute need. Without hesitation, she agreed to step right in and fill the need. To one of her best friends, her multiple placements come as no surprise. Her friend says, “She is one of the most organized people I know. She is very motivating. When I am down, she is the one I call for support. She helps pick up my kids, brings afternoon snacks by my job, and always has a listening ear.” The Junior League is honored to have such a valuable member!

Tyler Pavlic was awarded the October Pat on the Back Award for her hard work and dedication to making the 2014 JLL Spring Market, Market with a Mission, a success. Thanks Tyler!
