A high priority incident occurred back to back days 9/16/24 & 9/17/24. The first day, the situation evolved rapidly for a long time, the stress was high, demands of camera operations and dispatchers were endless. Dispatcher Murnane did an outstanding job on the radio - communicating with the officers, providing live updates, executing each request quickly and keeping note of their location as officer safety is #1 priority. Dispatcher Shepherd took a high volume of calls and also documented the information needed to piece together the incident as it occurred. Supervisor Bolt was helping dispatchers and manning cameras simultaneously but, as always, was easy to approach and talk to with questions and direction on what to do or who to call. The second day, Dispatcher Whetsel did a phenomenal job on the radio -controlling the situation that was again rapidly evolving, anticipating the needs of the officers, providing live updates and handling all of the requests being asked. Dispatcher shepherd again took calls and documented the information as it occurred. I truly believe a great deal of the success during these two days is owed to AVM Aubrey Timmons. Without her quick and skilled camera work to confirm details, locations, descriptions as the demands poured in, it would not have been possible. She stayed calm and collected, with a great attitude, the whole way through on both days. It is great to be part of such a wonderful team!

I made a phone call last Friday Sept 13, to have an office painted for our Associate Vice President to move into and there were spots on the wall where pictures were hung and removed. John had Darren VanWinkle come over on Monday Sept. 16 to patch the holes and he painted the whole office in one day. It looks awesome and I just wanted to thank both of you for the rush job and I greatly appreciate your great customer service.

These individuals all volunteered to stay late on a Friday evening to help set up the nearly 600 chairs needed for the Alumni Band at St. John Arena. Their efforts ensured the former members of TBDBTL were able to rehearse for the next day's performance during halftime of the Ohio State football game. Their efforts were appreciated by the leadership of both the OSU Alumni Band and the OSU Marching Band.
