The inside track for Shops employees
Introductions all around…
Beach Bytes emails are sent only to Forty-Niner Shops employees, and they come out approximately twice a month. With so many of us in so many different places, this email update is the most efficient way to share information with the company on a regular basis. Each Bytes issue will have three sections: “The Inside Track” (info that’s generally important to just our employees), “For Everyone at The Beach” (info to share with customers, classmates, and friends of campus community), and the “Hot Seat” (where you can learn interesting facts about your fellow Shops team).
The Beach Breeze is an e-newsletter that’s publically accessible. We post stories of our people on the website for everyone to see. To check out one from last summer, click here. It’s going through a little facelift, but there will be one coming out soon. We’ll let you know when it’s published!
Beach Bytes—just for us. Beach Breeze—for the campus community. We hope that helps!
New faces at the reception desk
Through the glass door on the second floor of the University Bookstore are the Shops Corporate Offices. Kellie Moffatt and Jonathan Rowe are two student receptionists that are new to the desk upstairs, but not to the Shops. Kellie, a Fashion Merchandising major, transferred from the Beach Walk Café, and Jonathan, a Comparative World Literature major, came from upper campus at the Library Starbucks. Congratulations on the transfer and welcome to the reception desk!
Department Merge
Graphics and Communications have merged their team members together into a singular Communications Department. Rosa Hernandez-Henderson (Dir. of Communications/HR) and Marianne Winters-Russo (previously Graphics Supervisor, now Communications Supervisor) have combined to coordinate the efforts of Student Graphics Designers, Social Media and Communications Assistants into one team.
The Communications office is located in the southwest corner of the University Bookstore building, near the Campus Copy Center/production area, Textbook Offices, and the Warehouse. Their extension is 5-1125. The CCC Production Area still uses 5-1659, which was previously shared by both offices.
Expanding Shops Communications’ Team
Two new members have been added to the Shops Communications team: Erin Lightfoot and Erik Ernst. Erik, a Communications major, transferred in from the Warehouse to be the Social Media Assistant, and Erin Lightfoot (B.A. Communications Studies, Minor in Marketing) is currently pursuing her M.A. in Transformative Leadership while contributing as a Communications Assistant. Erin previously worked for the Shops in the UDP while pursuing her Bachelor’s. Welcome Erin and Erik!
Staff Day comes to the Nugget
As part of three days of events for CSULB Staff Day, the Nugget will be hosting a Yogurtland Staff Social on Thursday, July 26, from 11:30am-1:30pm. Local band Low Low Jones will be performing during that time with their special blend of funk, rock, and soul. If you see any CSULB Staff members, this is the same day as their special one day sale!
