VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT
Trish Sitnik
Oak Marr RECenter’s
2012 Outstanding Volunteer
of the Year
After having served as a Front Desk volunteer, Trish was
asked to serve as Market Master for the Oak Marr Farmers'
Market. Not only did she agree, but she embraced the
position with great enthusiasm.
Trish arrives well before the farmers' early morning
arrival. She assures that the safety and comfort of the
farmers as well as that of the customers is of ut-most
importance when performing the set-up, maintenance, and
take down of the market place.
Trish has made it a point to learn about the farmers,
their products and their operations "at home".
She has created a community atmosphere here at Oak Marr
that is admired by farmers and customers alike. In an
effort to increase traffic, she has spearheaded a move to
offer a different themed presentation each week. It
doesn't hurt that she provides donuts every Wednesday
morning also.
When market planning takes place, Trish works to assure
a balance of products as well as a congenial meeting of
the minds and she has advanced the move to more and
better publicity.
