UMaine Employees Invited to May 13 Coffee Breaks

Contact: George Manlove, 581-3756

Employees at UMaine are invited to drop by Wells Conference Center May 13 for the annual spring coffee breaks sponsored by the Office of Human Resources as a way to extend appreciation to the university’s more than 2,000 employees.

Coffee breaks are scheduled from 9-11 a.m. for first-shift employees and 9-10:30 p.m. for second- and third-shift employees. Light refreshments and beverages will be available.

The coffee breaks traditionally are held to provide an opportunity for employees across the campus to socialize informally.

This year, the coffee breaks will be held in the newly renovated Wells Conference Center, which is open for special events and opens for dining in the fall.

“We’re especially excited about this year’s coffee break since it is being held in the beautifully renovated Wells Conference Center,” says Janet Waldron, vice president for administration and finance. “This is the time of year to show our appreciation for the many, many UMaine employees who work tirelessly to keep the wheels turning and the university operating.”

The coffee breaks are scheduled between the annual employee retirement banquet on May 12 and the employee recognition and achievement banquet May 14 this year.
