As May comes to an end, I reflect with bittersweet emotion; it's a time to reflect on some great moments around Memorial Day that I'll cherish for years to come as a part of two of Cisco's EROs (Employee Resource Organizations).
The VETS (Veterans Enablement & Troops Support) and CDAN (Connect Disabilities Awareness Network) ERO's were a part of some touching moments around Memorial Day. VETS and Work Place Resources (WPR) stood up The Fallen Comrade Table at Cisco sites across the country. VETS also worked with MemorialDayFlowers.org organizing the Flowers for the Fallen event in which flowers were laid on the graves of veterans in the Raleigh National Cemetery in Raleigh, NC and Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Los Altos, CA.
VETS and CDAN came together for an exciting high point that takes place toward the end of May; the VA Valor Games Southeast. Managed by Bridge II Sports with the support of companies that call Research Triangle Park, North Carolina home, this event is a bridge between the two Cisco employee resource groups that results in success through collaboration at the Games.
