Celebrating Excellence: Mercer’s Weekend Event for Top Ten Owner Operators and Coordinators
At Mercer Transportation, we believe in celebrating the hard work and dedication of our top ten owner-operators and coordinators. This year, we hosted a fantastic weekend event to honor their achievements, filled with memorable activities, delicious food, and fun-filled moments. Here’s a recap of the unforgettable experience at the Hyatt Regency in Louisville, KY, home to Mercer’s headquarters.
A Warm Welcome for Coordinators and Owner-Operators at the Hyatt Regency
Our top performing owner-operators and coordinators kicked off the weekend with a stay at the luxurious Hyatt Regency. The excitement was palpable as everyone checked into their rooms, anticipating the events ahead. The first night started with a delightful dinner provided by the hotel. The ambiance was perfect for mingling and getting to know each other better.
Casino Night Extravaganza
After dinner, the real fun began with an authentic casino experience. The room buzzed with energy as staff and drivers tried their luck at various casino games. It was a night filled with laughter, friendly competition, and the occasional cheer of victory. The casino night was a perfect way to end the first evening, leaving everyone in high spirits.
An Award Ceremony our Owner Operators and Coordinators to Remember
Day 2 was all about recognition and celebration. Mercer hosted an incredible award ceremony where our General Manager, Dale Corum, and Director of Operations, Tyler Johnston, delivered inspiring speeches. Their words of appreciation and encouragement resonated with everyone in the room. Shelby Corum and the team of Contractor Relations had the honor of handing out the awards to our deserving drivers and their coordinators, making the moment even more special.
Fun and Games at Sports & Social Club
After the ceremony, the celebration continued at the Sports & Social Club. The atmosphere was electric as staff and drivers formed teams and competed in a classic game of bowling. The sound of pins crashing and cheers from teammates created an environment of camaraderie and fun. Party food and refreshments added to the enjoyment, making it a highlight of the trip.
A Grand Finale at Morton’s Steakhouse
The weekend wrapped up with a delicious meal at Morton’s Steakhouse, a beloved Louisville staple. It was the perfect ending to a fantastic event, with everyone sharing stories and memories from the weekend. The sense of community and mutual respect among the Mercer family was evident throughout the meal.
Inspiring Future Top Performers
This annual event is a testament to Mercer’s commitment to recognizing and celebrating the success of our drivers and staff. While the locations may change each year, the engagement, camaraderie, and spirit of celebration remain constant. We hope this inspiring weekend motivates more people to strive for excellence and secure a spot in the top ten.
