A Kalamazoo County branch of Mercury Broadband played a role in helping St. Joseph County Central Dispatch observe First Responders Day.
The national acknowledgment was Saturday, but a four-person team from Mercury’s Schoolcraft location showed up during shift change Friday afternoon to express its gratitude.
Mishel Northrop, sales and marketing manager for the Kalamazoo market, said St. Joseph County is a newer and wide-open market for Mercury. As a result, honoring staff at the Centreville-based agency was a prudent course of action, she said.
Northrop and her team purchased a Stanley brand, 40-ounce metal tumbler for every Central Dispatch employee – 19 in all. In addition, they gifted the agency an Ecozy ice maker, a need shared with Northrop by Central Dispatch Director Stacey Bower.
