There were snowmen and snowflakes, santas and sleighs, a yeti and a unicorn, bears, penguins and gingerbread men. There were Christmas lights, candy canes, pompoms and colorful tassels. There were funny sweaters, traditional sweaters and even tiny sweaters on sweaters. But, by employee vote, the ugliest sweaters of all were those donned by Sarah Martin, Robert Shine and Phil Koelsch in Intervala’s first Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest. For their holiday spirit and courage, the winners take home an Omaha Steaks or Honey Baked Ham gift card. Thanks to everyone who participated in this fun event!
What could be better than granting a child’s Christmas wish? Granting thousands of children’s wishes! The Intervala team is proud to join hundreds of companies and individuals across western Pennsylvania in supporting the Salvation Army’s Treasures for Children campaign through donations and volunteerism. Hats off to our own employees whose generous donations of gifts and cash will help children in our community enjoy the special magic of the Christmas season.
Big thanks to Allegheny County, Pa., Executive Rich Fitzgerald and Director of Economic Development Lance Chimka for visiting Intervala in East Pittsburgh today! The two got to see our leading-edge electronics manufacturing operation in action and learned more about how Intervala is creating tech jobs and bringing more business to southwestern Pennsylvania.
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, our employees got busy collecting groceries for neighbors in need. With the food drive complete, today we delivered nearly 370 food items and supplies to the Westinghouse Valley Food Pantry, which provides food assistance to families in the Turtle Creek, Pa., area near our facility. Huge thanks to our generous team members and the amazing folks at Westinghouse Valley Food Pantry for supporting our community and providing neighbors with relief from food insecurity.
Go Steelers! Intervala hosted its annual fall employee luncheon today with a tailgate twist—a chance to win tickets to tonight’s PIttsburgh Steelers game against the Carolina Panthers. We kicked things off with a delicious chili and soup lunch from Apple Harvest Catering in North Versailles, Pa., then continued the fun with a raffle featuring the coveted Steelers tickets. Congratulations to employees Norm Czarnecki, John Davis and Diane Volkert who will be cheering on the Steelers in person at Heinz Field tonight!
