A Year Of Thanks

Today we’ll hear from Holly Skoog. Holly has been with Wright Outdoor Solutions for more than 12 years. She started working in the garden center as a hobby, and later, became the accountant. After the merger of Heard Gardens and Wright Tree Care to form Wright Outdoor Solutions in 2007, she became the director of business administration, and now serves as the general manager. Holly is a Master Gardener and Certified Master Horticulturist. Read Holly’s full biography here.

It’s nice to step out of the day-to-day job and reflect on all the great things that are happening at Wright Outdoor Solutions. After taking a moment to reflect, it’s great to think about the successful conclusion of this season and the promise of another one to come.

As the year draws to a close in less than six weeks, I’d like to say thank you to all the employees we have on our team. Everyone has worked so hard to make the year a success. This winter, I plan on working with our team to define our strategies and lay the foundation for our new year. Having a strong team that works together is critical to our success.

After almost 13 years in this business, I always look forward to spring and the exciting opportunities that come with the melting of the snow, and the warming of the days. This year, I’m just as excited for the snow and the cool days; it’s time to prepare for another promising year, and I’m glad we have the team that we do.

To celebrate Thanksgiving, our team spent some time together enjoying a potluck. Click here to see a couple photos from the event. From our family to yours, we hope you have a happy Thanksgiving!
