Keep up with the latest events happening throughout the Club. EXERCISE OF THE MONTH LONGTIME WAC Administrative Systems Manager & Executive Assistant Dawn Dorsett retired at the end of October following 22 years at the Club. Dawn served five WAC General Managers/President & CEOs, worked closely with the Board of Governors, and was instrumental in planning and organizing the most important member leader meetings each year. "Dawn will truly be missed," President & CEO Chuck Nelson said. "Her character and class set a great example for all of us, and her commitment and contributions to the WAC and its members have played a large role in the great success of the Club." Before Chuck, Dawn served Jim Johnson, John Teutsch, Jim Wright, and Frank Voogd. Dawn's first day on the job, October 13, 1992, was also former General Manager Frank Voogd's birthday. She recalls a celebration taking place as she was waiting to be introduced. "Life begins when you step out of your comfort zone," Dawn said. "I saw that on a bumper sticker when I was preparing to give my resignation. And I am stepping out of my comfort zone by leaving the WAC." What's the thing she'll miss most: "Handing out the gingerbread houses to the past Chairmen each holiday season." Dawn Dorsett bids adieu IF YOU THOUGHT last year's Jubilee Grand Prize was hot, wait until you see it in black!
