Every year, Deloitte hosts Impact Day, a day where employees across the country take time from their busy schedules to volunteer at local organizations and make a difference.
Twisted Pine, a GSCO property, was one of many locations that Deloitte volunteers worked at today. Twenty four volunteers helped get the property in tip-top shape by cleaning the lodge from top to bottom, raking dried leaves and trimming trees.
Megan Flori King works at Deloitte and is a member of the GSCO Board of Directors. Along with volunteering today, she has helped the long time partnership between GSCO and Deloitte thrive.
"I really enjoy my time with the Girl Scouts and took the opportunity where Deloitte spends a day nationwide volunteering to really continue to further what I view as the mission of the Girl Scouts," Flori King said. "I would say, it's always a really great day where it's just positive and you walk away with a smile on your face."
Kelli Wolfe, another Deloitte employee, said she was glad she got to help get Twisted Pine ready for girls to have fun at this summer.
"Helping out feels great," Wolfe said. "It's nice to get outdoors and it feels good to give back to the community. It's been a really fun time."
Today wasn't just about volunteering. Assistant Site Manager of Twisted Pine Wendy Edwardson is "retiring from Girl Scouts" later this month and was celebrated for her almost 20 years of commitment to the property.
"I think it's fantastic that [Deloitte volunteers] want to help out. It impacts so many troops that are going to come and use the property. And I hope that they individually feel that it's fulfilling for them to come up here and see that they're doing something that makes a difference."
