Lions, Tigers, &...Dinosaurs?






Lions, Tigers, and Dinosaurs, OH MY!


“Everyday is Halloween!” cheered Atalanta Vardamoskos, Account Executive here at Scarlet Management Group.  It’s hard to keep quiet about the holidays here at SMG and today we had the wonderful opportunity to assist the Boys & Girls Club of Columbus get ready for Halloween!  Philanthropy comes naturally to the SMG team as we strive to make an impact in different organizations.  This month at the Boys & Girls Club, we helped them prepare for their annual Haunted Murder Mystery night taking place the following evening for the kids.  Because they are hosting this festive event, there was no question that they needed all of the help they could get!

After having a chance to speak with Club Director, Tyshayla Reed, about the impact that SMG has had within their organization, it was evident how much our service was appreciated.  Our task today was to lay the foundation for the murder mystery event.  Our team members started off with cutting large black trash bags and began hanging them around the whole facility; an appropriate approach to set the mood for their upcoming event!  Tyshayla shared how this project took three days to set up last year!  So they were very grateful to find out that Scarlet Management Group was coming to assist in the facility!



“Every month, we’re excited to work with you guys!  They do the work that our workers aren’t able to get to.  They’re consistent and they never complain”, Tyshayla shared with me.  Because they are so limited on staff, they always appreciate the time that we are able to contribute.  “They are our favorite staffing group.  Whether it be cleaning, painting they’re always willing to help.” 


The Haunted Murder Mystery event will begin at 6 p.m. Wednesday October 29 at the Boys & Girls Club located at 1012 Cleveland Avenue, Columbus, OH 43201.  As the night consists of solving a murder case, scares, thrills and a dance party, this will also be a great night to interact with the kids!  Hope to see you guys there! "What do you guys enjoy most about volunteering"?
