Sports Jersey Friday

We are in the midst of our annual Employee Giving Campaign to help support the Mile High United Way and the Pinnacol Foundation. There will be all sorts of fun events surrounding the campaign. One of the more popular events is Sports Jersey Friday where employees can, for a $5 donation, wear their favorite team's jersey to work.

Pictured here is Doretha, one of my co-workers in Human Resources. Doretha DOES NOT like to have her picture taken, but this morning she was a good sport and allowed me to take her snapshot. Doretha is a die-hard Bronco fan. I don't know if the picture does her full justice - from her jacket to her jersey, to her earrings and her jewelry, she lives and breathes Broncomania from September to whenever the season ends for her favorite ponies. Doretha has actually attended a Super Bowl, alas, not when the Broncos actually won, and in her heart she believes its just a matter of time before she sees Mr. McDaniels and crew hoisting the Vince Lombardi trophy in the air.

Time will tell how the Broncos do this year, but I do know that our employees enjoy Sports Jersey Friday and being able to have fun while supporting a worthy cause.
