July is Baked Beans Month, Blueberry Month, Fireworks Safety Month, Hitchhiking Month, Hot Dog Month, and Ice Cream Month.
It makes sense because July 4th marks the United States’ adoption of the Declaration of Independence and we celebrate with cookouts, fireworks, friends, and family. (Okay, maybe Hitchhiker Month is a little random. Unless you’ve made friends with a hitchhiker and s/he comes to your cookout.)
At Apto we have some celebrations of our own this month!
July marks three employee anniversaries:
Bo Hamby – 6 years on July 6
Taure Anthony – 2 years on July 9
Jerry Luzar – 1 year on July 20
We’re so happy to have them around.
And a few birthdays …
Gabe Gullia – July 16
Derek Stadmiller – July 20
John Howell – July 27
Dave DelRosario – July 30
Happy birthday, guys!
See you in August!

Azaleas in Atlanta. Poisonous to sheep, horses, and goats, but not to dogs and cats (we’ll remind you during the winter holidays that poinsettias ARE poisonous to cats and dogs). (http://www.flickr.com/photos/dancannon/4528589631/)
Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and West Virginia all became states during the month of June (in 1792, 1796, 1836, and 1863 respectively).
And it’s a big month for Apto Solutions too! June 1 marks the start of the company’s 9th year and the 9 year anniversary for CEO Jeff Jones and President James Kilkelly.
And of course there are birthdays to celebrate in the coming weeks:

Today we recognized both our MVP for the Month of March, along with our Company MVP for Quarter 1 of 2010. We have changed things up a bit this year, by focusing on our Quarter results, hence why we no longer have Company MVP’s per month. We have also added a new benefit to the Quarter MVP winner. Along with a $50 gift card, they now have a reserved parking space. We also gave special recognition to our contract workers Donna Biddle, Brian Knowles, and Orlando Ingram. Congrats to our winners below.
