| Getting ready for our picnic lunch. |
We scrambled around this morning:
tables and stools were moved outside, flowers and soda were being
bought, lunch was being called in, and a card was being passed
around. What was this all for, you might ask? Well, we are saying
goodbye to a very special member of our team. Megan has been with
The Ceramic Shop since quite nearly the beginning (racking up a total
of 10 years!). Today she leaves for the weekend, but we wont be
seeing her on Monday. Megan has been preparing to leave over the last
couple of months after she was accepted into a graduate program for
Occupational Therapy at Temple University.

| Something to always remember us by. |
We closed the store for half an hour
(sorry if we missed you!) and sat down for a company-wide lunch as a
way to say “congratulations and we'll miss you.” During lunch
Mark reminisced about days long since past, when Megan first started
working for him. He recalled how she was still attending school at
UArts and looked very much like an art student. When she first
started everyone would call and ask for him, but soon when he
answered the phone everyone would request Megan. She seemed to have
all the answers (about ceramics). We know that it will be strange
without her, but we are glad to know that she'll still find time to
stop by and say “hi.”
At lunch Mark presented Megan with the
“Porcelain Key Award.” A permanent connection to The Ceramic
Shop. It represents an open invitation to stop by and see us any
time. We hope to see you soon and often Megan. Good luck in all
your future endeavors!
