16. Teambuilding
Legendary Richland faculty member, Luke
Barber wrote the book Work Like Your Dog. He
tells us to have joy in our work and be playful just
like your family pet at home.
I’m not shy about rallying the troops for a
teambuilding exercise. I’ve led, coordinated or
participated in many such events with our group
and delivered presentations for Richland new
employee orientation sessions.
Richland used to hold an annual “Souper Bowl.”
This was a very competitive soup tasting contest
with a theme. The year we did “commercials,” I
led our team to victory for best soup and theme.
I had worked for the ad agency that created the
Energizer Bunny  We won best theme 3x.
Zorro (me) with Richland Command
Spanish instructor, Tommy Marion hosting
“Zorro’s Black Bean Fantastico Soup”
I made sure we had a holiday card and
year-in-review message for our clients,

delivered gifts to our clients as a token
of appreciation for their business.

available for the holiday picture.

Designed and built a 12 ft. WWII
aircraft carrier educational activity.
The USS Hornet CV-8 is a WWII
aircraft carrier famous for the
Doolittle Raid and Battle of Midway.
Kids land miniature aircraft attached
to a zipline on a target pattern. The
ship is on wheels (which can make
landing more exciting in high seas).

Squadron member created a home-
built video game.

21. CAF Banners
Designed and arranged
printing for two durable
educational banners that
are affixed to the B-29 and
B-24 when they are on
static display.
The banners tell the
history of the aircraft and
answer many of the
questions commonly
posed by the public to our
touring crews, so they can
focus on other needed
tasks.

marketing, fundraising,

to deliver a second webinar to the CAF and
later to the Richland Emeritus program about
our B-29 “FIFI” on her 75th birthday.
