In 2012, then City Manager Bernie Lynch hosted first annual Employee Appreciation Cookout as a chance for the manager and the administration to thank the hundreds of employees from various departments that help keep city government on a day to day basis.
That tradition continued first under Lynch and then under subsequent city managers and has since grown to include a super competitive Cornhole tournament.
On Tuesday, September 10th, the various departments came together to enjoy an afternoon of burgers, hot dogs, and public service camaraderie.
