It s Happening at Chinook Winds in December... by TeresaSimmOns Lorange Named Third Quarter Superstar J Dixie Lorange from the Security Department, who also is an EMT, was selected as the casino’s Superstar for the third quarter of 2003. Tribal elders, members of the Gaming Council, the Siletz Tribal Gaming Regulatory Agency, Chinook Winds directors, and several casino staff members were present at the Superstar ceremony on Oct. 30. In recognition of her achievement, Dixie was presented with a check for $1,000, a plaque, and a marble tile with her name engraved on it that will be displayed at the front of the casino. To be eligible to receive the Superstar award, an employee must perform his/her duties at a high standard of excellence on a consistent basis. He/she must exhibit above-the-norm internal and external customer service and be a team leader by example. Instances of exemplary performance must be documented. After a person is nominated for the award, the nomination goes through several reviews before the final selection is made. Both casino staff and casino guests can submit Superstar nominations. With more than 700 employees and only four of these awards given each year, it’s a real honor to be chosen as the Superstar. Dixie was nominated by a guest who wrote, Tm writing to thank you for saving my life. 1 have no doubt your professionalism and compassion are the reasons 1 am here to write this note. Thank you for your care and concern. ” Nominees include (I tor) Maria Watts, Food & Beverage; Debra Wright, Food & Beverage; Karen VanderZanden, Facilities; Bob Hardy, Transportation; Lester Walters, Food & Beverage; and Larry Huffman, Transportation. Superstar Dixie Lorange is shown in the center holding her plaque.
