CrestClean Invercargill’s talent was put under the spotlight at the Christmas party.
Held on Saturday, December 12, about 90 franchisees and their families helped celebrate another successful year – with a twist.
“This year was different. We held a special event CrestClean has got Talent,” Invercargill Regional Manager Glenn says. “Franchisees and their families provided everyone with an afternoon of entertainment where they displayed other skills they have.”
The talent competition was judged by Jonathan Tucker QSM, Patron of the Reparatory Society in Invercargill and his wife, Barbara. ANZ Invercargill Business Manager Joan Daglish also assisted.
Judges had a tough job choosing the CrestClean has got Talent winners. The winning group was the Visayas and Mindanao Group who performed as the “Midgets”. Brother and sister Mart and Kristine De Guzman took out the young male and female awards with their duet.
Prizes were also presented to the best-dressed man, woman and child.
Santa arrived in style and presented 42 children with a gift each.
“It was a fantastic bonding exercise for all of our Franchisee’s. We have had quite a number that are new to Crest Invercargill this year,” he says. “It was great to have everyone together and everyone had a really good time. We have a great team here in Invercargill.”
Jackie and Anthony Batoy received their three year Long Service Award and Glenn received his five year Long Service Award. British Institute of Sciences accredited Hard Floor Care and Module 2 training course completion certficates were presented to a number of franchisees.
Ashneer and Durgeshni Datt were named Invercargill’s Franchisee of the Year.
