President's Corner--Employee Spotlight
As the holidays are upon us, those traveling through CAK will find all the modern amenities of a larger airport, but with the comfort and feel of a small hometown airport. We look forward to welcoming you to CAK as you make holiday travel plans.
We continue our efforts to emphasize the important roles played by our most prized asset, our employees. As winter season is here, the critical roles played by staff is what sets us apart. In this edition, we want to introduce one of our newest employees, Mark Neyman.
Mark was hired to join the Airport’s Field Maintenance team in March. Mark is looking ahead to the coming months, eager to apply his learned skills to help the team battle the elements. Luckily, there are plenty of nonstop flights to the beach through CAK, as Mark believes he will need some warmth after the winter. Mark finds his time at CAK to be exciting. “There’s something new each day and everyone chips in to help,” said Mark.
Thank you, Mark, for making CAK's slogan ‘a better way to go’ an authentic reality in all you do for the Airport and community. Your efforts have a tremendous impact?(see more).
On behalf of CAK, we want to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season full of laughter, joy, ‘family’, and optimistic outlook for the new year.
Warm Regards,
Ren
