HE&R Recognizes Team Members Across the Destination
Hershey Entertainment & Resorts (HE&R) recently named its 2024 Partners of the Year at Town Hall meetings across several properties.
Throughout the 2024 calendar year, team members were nominated by their peers or supervisors for “Team Member of the Month” recognition for embodying HE&R's Core Values: Devoted to the Legacy, Selfless Spirit of Service, Team-Focused and Respectful of Others. Then, at the beginning of the following year, leaders at each property choose the team member who earns the distinction of being named “Partner of the Year.”
Congratulations to all nominees from The Hotel Hershey, Hershey Lodge, Hersheypark Entertainment Complex and Hershey Country Club, and please join us in celebrating the 2024 Partners of the Year!
Ricardo Sepulveda, Maintenance, The Hotel Hershey
Ricardo’s nominator said “Ricardo proactively tackles projects, efficiently manages tasks, and adapts his schedule to meet operational needs while minimizing guest impact. His leadership in major projects, including PTAC replacements and electrical shutdowns, demonstrates his initiative and attention to detail. Ricardo’s professionalism and positivity make him highly respected and team-focused. He is invaluable to our team and truly deserving of this recognition.”
Sarah Crippen, Convention Services, Hershey Lodge
Sarah’s nominator said, “Sarah is the heart of the banquet operation. Without her, the department would not operate as smoothly and efficiently as it does. As one of the first people on the floor to assist when needed, you can find her helping with table sets, flipping rooms and running items from place to place, especially on busy days. She has also helped the banquet and arrangements team and assisted culinary with plate-ups and dish out. We are so grateful for all Sarah does for our team and all team members across the property.”
Alisha Nicely, Security, Hersheypark Entertainment Complex
Alisha’s nominator said, “Alisha’s unwavering dedication and impressive skill set have been instrumental in navigating the many complexities of her position. Alisha has taken on a multitude of challenging responsibilities with poise and expertise, tackling everything from the intricate logistics of our transportation program to the implementation of our new paid parking Point of Sale System. Even in the face of daunting tasks and high-pressure situations, she has maintained a steady hand, methodically problem-solving and keeping the team focused on our goals. Her exceptional organizational skills, coupled with a keen eye for detail, have allowed Alisha to streamline processes and implement robust systems that have set us up for success in the coming year.”
