Snow Day

January 10, 2025

Hi Team!

Can you believe the amount of snow we received the past two days? It was a beautiful sight to see. A big THANK YOU to all of the Benchmark associates that either spent the night at DU or braved the snowy roads to come in to work. We had just over 500 guests in house, and we never missed a beat! Thankyou, thank you, thank you! Here is some important info that I wanted to share with you this week.

Parking Garage Opening on Monday!

We are excited that our new parking garage will open this Monday.  There are 457 parking spots in the garage – 152 on level one, and305 on level two.  The garage is open for all associates to use.  There are two entrances/exits – one dedicated to Carey shuttles, the other for associates.  The associate entrance is located by the Security shack on the Ottinger Road entrance. When using the parking garage, please watch your speed.  Also, use the walkways in the parking garage.  There is a Drivers Lounge in the garage, but this is reserved for the Carey shuttle drivers, not us.  We will now begin work on the Solar Panel covers for our current parking lot.
