He is approaching his sixth anniversary with Eggleston! Robert, with his wealth of experience and enthusiasm for Eggleston, is always eager to assist with tours of our facility and promote Eggleston. We wanted to take this opportunity to commend him for his commitment to the job and highlight what an asset he is to our team.

Aside from his exemplary work performance, Robert has numerous interests which occupy his time outside of work. Robert is a writer and history buff. Robert’s diligence extends beyond his job. Robert makes daily journal entries to hone his creative writing skills and regularly astounds his coworkers with his encyclopedic knowledge of United States Presidential history.

Robert distinguishes his current job from past employment because this is the first situation where he has met his self-defined criteria for success. When asked how he defines success in employment, Robert cites his consistent attendance, seniority, hard work and, most importantly, his ability to make money. Great job, Robert!

The first week of Summer Camp at Civitan Acres has come to a close and campers had a final delicious lunch together, were given their awards and danced to the “Cupid Shuffle” before saying goodbye to their friends.

Civitan Acres is Eggleston’s 14-acre property on Cedar Road in Chesapeake, VA. In 1999, Eggleston partnered with Civitan Acres for the Disabled, Inc. and the Civitan Club of Norfolk to advance and expand the property’s program offerings. Some of the individuals at this facility have very significant support needs. The program is designed to improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities by helping them develop and balance emotional, intellectual, and physical dimensions of their lives.
