SCS HOLIDAY PARTY | A TIME TO CELEBRATE

On December 16th SCS celebrated the holidays at The Jefferson Street Inn in Wausau. The company party went from 5:30pm to 9pm and included a cocktail hour, silent auction, and dinner.  

During the evening a slideshow played – recapping our record-breaking year. Following dinner, we presented awards to SCS employees celebrating a milestone work anniversary of either 5 years or 10 years with the company. Our 5-year recipients were Carrie Slater, Krystina Welch, Mike Manning, Andy Braunel, Ali Menebroeker, Jay Trowbridge, and Lori Minnihan. Our 10-year recipients were Bryan Taylor, Lavern Pestka, and Randy Hazelton. We are very thankful for the hard work and dedication these employees have shown us during their tenure with SCS.  

The silent auction consisted of 3 baskets with different themes – a sports basket, a booze basket, and a wellness basket. The silent auction ended at 8pm and the money that was collected from these baskets was used to purchase gifts for Acorn Hill Senior and Assisted Living Center in Mosinee, along with some necessities recommended by the Acorn Hill staff. These gifts were delivered to their residents on December 21st. 

Following dessert, one guest from each table got to take the centerpiece home as a gift from our owners. The night was a success, and we are excited to get everyone together again next year.

GUEST BLOG | PAT | REALTOR®

SCS Real Estate is a full service real estate brokerage providing professional service to their clients. From buying, selling, investing or renting - they have you covered! SCS Real Estate has a team of talented Realtors. Hear from Realtor Pat McElroy about his experience and passion for real estate.

My path to becoming a Realtor® had several stops but all of my experiences led me to the career that I love. I graduated from UWSP and worked as a General Manager at a hotel for nearly a decade. This experience provided a key hospitality foundation that is critical in providing the service that clients deserve. For a few years, I was a property manager at SCS; that experience taught me the art of showing different properties to clients and learning how to find the right property for them. I also owned a real estate marketing company and worked as a real estate transaction coordinator. All of these experiences provided the skills needed to become an agent. The skills combined with my passion for marketing and my commitment to providing great service to clients, made real estate the right career for me.

I am a lifelong resident of Central Wisconsin and love to share information about all the area has to offer. I enjoy hiking, camping, and skiing. I have always been interested in real estate and all things related to real estate. I am passionate about architecture, urban development, and older homes and their histories.  These houses tell stories about their past and I really enjoy playing a role in continuing those stories with new families that buy the homes. There is joy in seeing the weight lifted off the shoulders of the future homeowners and seeing their excitement grow as they enter the new chapter of their lives in a new home.

When selling a home there is a lot of mixed feelings. I had one moment where I showed my client a great offer on his home, and I will never forget his reaction. I could see the elation and release of stress in his face. It is rewarding moments like this that motivate me every day.

GUEST BLOG | ALISON | ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNER II

The Design Team at S.C. Swiderski is involved from the conceptual phase of project planning all the way through completion of construction. This talented team is focused on continuous improvement and customer satisfaction. We are excited to have Alison Baxter share a little about what she does at SCS.

I started my career with S.C. Swiderski about 7 months ago. Right when I started it happened to align nicely that my team had just started working on Request for Proposals for 2 local sites. With 23 years of experience in the architectural and residential design fields, I was able to jump in and work with our Development Team to create a brand-new building style called the “Sterling” that was designed for the Riverlife area in Wausau. Once that was submitted, we started working on another Request for Proposal for the town of Schofield and created another new building style called the “Schofield.” Both of those Request for Proposals have been approved and it is great to see our accomplishments come to life so early in my time here.

Since then, I’ve been able to work on site plans for future job sites and have learned more about our current locations and our existing buildings. I am still learning a lot about my position and developing my role here at S.C. Swiderski, but I am excited to be a part of our amazing design team and to continue to learn from them every day.
