Take the Plunge

With a new fiscal year upon us and the closeout of our 2008 fiscal year, it can easily be said that it far exceeded our expectations. We had record-level revenues, earnings, growth in number of employees and bookings of new contracts. In the last quarter alone, we won the recompete of our largest single contract — Passport Services. All of this, and, we were once again named to Fortune magazine’s list of the “100 Best Companies to Work For” — moving up the list from 100 to 84.

Stanley Advances on FORTUNE’s 2008 List of “100 Best Companies to Work For”

Phil Nolan

Congratulations, Stanley! This year, we advanced 16 slots to number 84 on FORTUNE® magazine’s list of “100 Best Companies to Work For.” This is Stanley’s second consecutive year on the list and we could not be more excited! The recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to placing our employees first and creating a culture in which they thrive, both professionally and personally.

“We were thrilled to receive this distinction on behalf of you—our 3,600 employees worldwide who make this company a great place to work each day,” said Phil Nolan, our chairman, president and CEO. “As our company evolves and expands to keep pace with our performance and the requirements of our customers, maintaining our unique culture becomes even more important and will continue to be one of our highest priorities.”

The Excalibur Fielding team takes a flight to the next Forward Operating Base in Iraq

Employee Randy Meece trains deployed soldiers on how to use the FOS and Precision Strike technology

Stanley Advances on FORTUNE’s 2008 List of “100 Best Companies to Work For”

FORTUNE noted that a driving factor for the list this year is that the companies excel in growth and creating jobs. The 100 companies on the 2008 list added 67,000 employees to their payrolls in the past year and employ a total of nearly 1.6 million employees. Stanley is no exception—since we submitted our Great Place to Work Culture Audit in July 2007, we have added more than 700 employees to our

company. In addition—and highlighted by FORTUNE—Stanley has grown an average of 33% annually for the past 10 years.

Each year, the Great Place to Work® Institute produces various Best Companies to Work for lists in the U.S. including FORTUNE’s “100 Best Companies to Work For®” in America. The Institute conducts a comprehensive 57-question employee survey, asking questions related to management, job satisfaction

technology, the soldier can determine accurate coordinates in just seconds. Target location accuracy is particularly important in an urban environment in order to avoid collateral damage. Randy was primarily responsible for training the Military Occupational Specialty 13F soldiers deployed in Iraq on the operation of the FOS and Precision Strike software application.

The Excalibur Fielding team spent approximately six to seven days at each Forward Operating Base they visited. Randy’s role was to determine who the 13F soldiers were and arrange their attendance at training. After training, the soldiers picked a “canned” target away from the civilian population for practice. Using the ruggedized handheld computer loaded with FOS and Precision Strike to verify the accuracy of the location, the team fired at the target. Eleven of the 12 rounds fired from the various Forward Operating Bases hit the target precisely.

By the completion of the fielding, Randy had traveled to eight Forward Operating Bases throughout Iraq and trained approximately 120 soldiers.

Stanley’s Training Development Section at Fort Sill, OK, has the unique privilege of helping prepare soldiers to carry out their Field Artillery (FA) mission around the world. In doing so, the team—led by Manager Mike Berkowick since 2001—has traveled to nearly every state in the U.S., as well as Germany, Korea and Puerto Rico. Most recently, Stanley team member Randy Meece had the opportunity to work with the Fires Software Engineering Division during the fielding of the new Excalibur projectile to FA units deployed in Iraq.

Randy worked as the Excalibur Fielding team’s Forward Observer Systems (FOS)–Precision Strike go-to man. The FOS and Precision Strike software are loaded onto a ruggedized handheld computer or standalone computer unit digital device and allow the soldier to locate targets quickly and precisely. With this new

and camaraderie. Two-thirds of the company’s total score is based on the results of this survey. The other third of the scoring is based on the company’s responses to the Institute’s Culture Audit, which includes detailed questions about employee demographics, pay and benefit programs, as well as a series of open-ended questions about the company’s culture. More than 400 companies participated in the survey this year.

At the heart of the Institute’s definition of a great place to work is a place where employees “trust the people they work for, have pride in what they do, and enjoy the people they work with.” We are honored at Stanley to exemplify this definition and look forward to participating in the survey again this year!

Bob DeLuca (Northrop Grumman) and Stanley employees Jerry Sharpe, Sarah Vincent and Jennifer Lagasse sort H-1B petitions at our Vermont Service Center

COMPANY NEWS

From April 1–7, Stanley team members on our U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) contract worked especially hard to process incoming H-1B nonimmigrant petitions. During this short filing period, the team received 161,453 petitions collectively at our California and Vermont Service Centers.

USCIS monitors the number of H-1B petitions it receives and runs a “lottery” to determine the petitioners that will receive H-1B status—an alien employed to perform services in a specialty occupation, related to a Department of Defense cooperative research and development or coproduction project, or in the field of fashion modeling. Once the filing period closes, all petitions are assigned a barcode and a random number generator (RNG) is run to determine the “lottery” winners. All other petitions are returned to the applicants unprocessed. Any petitions received before or after the established filing period are also returned.

Due to months of pre-planning, collaboration with our customer and the excellent work ethic of the Stanley team, we were able to process all of the incoming petitions in a timely fashion so the RNG could be run and the data collection could begin, earning impressive kudos from our customers. Congratulations to the Stanley team!

Stanley Team Receives Well-Earned Kudos

On Friday, March 28, Toney Stricklin was appointed as the Civilian Aide to the Secretary of the Army (CASA) for Oklahoma, in a ceremony officiated by the Secretary of the Army Pete Gehren at the Pentagon. Executive Vice President Greg Denkler, Senior Vice President Chris Torti and Dave Ralston attended the event.

CASAs serve as the local adviser to the Secretary of the Army, the Chief of Staff of the Army, and senior Army commanders whose areas of responsibility involve his or her state. They primarily advise these leaders on how the civilian community perceives the Army and its current initiatives, and serve as spokespersons to the civilian community regarding Army missions, programs and objectives.

“This is a prestigious honor for Toney and the company,” said Chris Torti. “It is not only reflective of his upstanding character and reputation in the U.S. Army community, but also the importance we place at Stanley on being an active force within our local communities.”

CASAs are selected on the basis of their demonstrated patriotism, interest in the Army, business or professional leadership, and ability to increase the public’s understanding of the Army. They are normally appointed to two-year terms and serve without pay. They participate in training exercises and Army conferences to enhance their awareness and understanding of today’s Army.

Civilian Aides represent each state plus the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Marianas Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. For protocol purposes, they are ranked just below 3-star general officers and are considered to be the Secretary of the Army’s personal representatives in their respective geographical areas.

Toney also serves as Stanley’s congressional liaison. Prior to this, he held the position of vice president of Techrizon. Before joining Techrizon, he served for more than 32 years as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army and retired from active service in August 2001, as a major general.

Toney Stricklin Appointed as Civilian Aide to the Secretary of the Army for Oklahoma

In late March, Stanley was named to OKCBusiness’ 2008 “Best Places to Work in Oklahoma” list as a finalist in the large company category. This was especially exciting news for us as April 1 marked the first anniversary of welcoming Techrizon—based in Lawton, OK—to the Stanley family.

“We are proud of our workforce in Oklahoma and honored to be recognized for the employee culture we have fostered across the company,” said Phil Nolan, our chairman, president and CEO.

The 30 top finalists were announced at an awards ceremony held on May 1 in Oklahoma City. Attendees Mike Berkowick, Pete Evans, Marsha King, Charles Myers, Mark Popp, Vice President Michael Sapenter, Senior Vice President Chris Torti and Clayton Werner accepted the award on behalf of Stanley.

The complete list of winners is available online at www.okcbusiness.com and in the OKC Business Best Places to Work magazine.

As Information Technology (IT) evolves from database application to enterprise business infrastructure, Stanley has resident experts who ensure successful execution of the business strategy in line with our customer’s vision. Since December 2007, we have offered assistance to the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security by engaging in full support of the office of the Chief Information Officer, understanding complex issues and overcoming obstacles in technical engineering implementation.

Profoundly changing the concept of IT services implementation, Enterprise Architecture (EA) introduces a new viewpoint for federal agencies to address IT investment and system development for business missions and operations. EA creates a path to better align IT services and business strategy—showing how computer technology supports the business application, from technical implementation to business missions and objectives.

If you are interested in collaborating and sharing ideas on EA related services, please contact Aleck Che-Mponda, BIS project manager, at [email protected].

Adding Value through Enterprise Architecture

Forty miles off the coast of Shinnecock, NY, the Coast Guard Cutter Bainbridge Island crew rescued a 75-foot fishing vessel, CindiSea, and its three passengers, when it suffered an engine room fire that damaged the generator and caused the boat to lose power this past December. Though the crew was able to extinguish the fire quickly, the inoperable generator left the boat helpless in seven foot seas.

Thanks in large part to Stanley’s Rescue 21 team, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) was able to monitor the position of the vessel using the new Rescue 21 radio system before the CindiSea lost complete battery power, enabling them to locate and tow the boat to safety. Rescue 21 acts as the maritime emergency system, enhancing the clarity of distress calls, incorporating positioning equipment to locate troubled vessels and improving the interoperability among federal and state agencies. Stanley’s Rescue 21 team, based out of Charleston, SC, travels to USCG regions across the country where they prepare facilities and install the new system equipment.

Major General Jeffrey Schloesser, commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) at Fort Campbell, KY, recently recognized several of our Stanley team members from the Emergency Operations Center, Battle Command Center and J3 Operations for their outstanding performance of duty. Emergency Operations CenterStanley employees at the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) received a plaque for their outstanding performance during the Division’s deployment of three Brigade Combat teams to Iraq, as well as the deployment of the Combat Aviation Brigade and Sustainment Brigade to Afghanistan. Each of these efforts occurred over the past six months and included approximately 17,000 soldiers. Stanley EOC team members include Gerald Brooks, Leslie Burks, Jeffrey Carey, Gene Douglas, Jeffrey Fickas, Howard Kindell, Douglas Lowe, Mark Manning, Jeffrey Marshall, Nelson Teeter and Joseph Young.

In addition to the plaque, each Stanley EOC team member received the Commanding General’s Coin for Excellence, which recognizes personnel who perform far beyond what is normally expected. Among its many tasks, the EOC team supports brigade

deployments by conducting weekly Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom deployment working group and synchronization meetings in order to facilitate support coordination between installation support agencies and division units. In addition, the EOC designs, produces and executes the Ready to Fly program to facilitate the deployment of newly assigned and deferred deployers.

Battle Command CenterEmployees Chris Dutton and David Griffiths received the Commanding General’s Coin for Excellence for their efforts organizing and operating the Combined Joint Task Force-101 Joint Operations Center and

Battle Command Center. The Stanley Battle Command Center team establishes and manages the command and control centers for the 101st Airborne Division. Work includes facility management as well as desk-side IT and automation equipment support for more than 200 personnel.

In January, Stanley successfully completed a challenging technical services project at the Library of Congress (LOC), one which marked a significant milestone for the Library’s Asian Division. Stanley has provided services to the LOC for the last seven years, first under the MegaLaw contract and currently under the recently-awarded Program Support Services contract.

The project involved automating the check-in process for serial materials, which eliminated the need to manually record bibliographic information on cardboard files. In addition, the creation of electronic records for more than 13,000 active serial titles in Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) now allows the public to access the information online for the first time in the history of the Asian Division. The existence of these records in the integrated library system has improved the workflow among several divisions at the LOC, including the Asian, Serial Records and Acquisitions Divisions. In addition, the Asian Division’s high “not-on-shelf-for-service” rate—a statistical category used as a key indicator by libraries worldwide in measuring the quality of operations for library collection maintenance and services—has been significantly reduced.

Stanley has long held a reputation at the LOC as the best value provider for library services, particularly for projects that are highly technical and that involve foreign language materials. We were awarded this sole-source task order based on our track record of excellent performance across multiple Library task orders. The LOC quality control staff, which understands

Making History at the Library of Congressthe level of difficulty and complex nature of the procedures involved in this automation project, offered their praise for the impeccable quality and accuracy of our work, as well as the talent and professionalism of our team. Chief of the Asian Division, Dr. Hwa-Wei Lee, expressed his thanks and offered kudos, “All our users who use Asian serials for their research will be very grateful to you for making our treasured CJK serials collection easily accessible through online search and identification of their holdings.”

Team members Jungheui Moon, Kelly Yuzawa and Project Manager Qijie Zhang-Klein now work on different assignments in the Law Library of Congress, performing classification and cataloging support for legal materials in German, Japanese and other foreign languages. We are proud to have these outstanding employees working for Stanley at the Library of Congress!

Stanley’s 407th Army Field Support Brigade Combat Service Support Automation Office (CSSAMO) team at Fort Hood, TX, was recently commended by Major AJ Williams, 4th Sustainment Brigade CSSAMO. The team, led by Project Manager Ron Perez, includes employees Carl Skinner and Dave Williams.

The CSSAMO team provides customer assistance for the Army’s Standard Army Management Information Systems (STAMIS), including software, hardware and technical support. They are responsible for training soldiers on the proper use of STAMIS and troubleshooting any related problems at Fort Hood.

Recently the team assisted in solving a STAMIS problem that reached far beyond Fort Hood. Units were experiencing difficulty sending reports with the new SAMS-E Software Change Package File Transfer Protocol—a network protocol used to transfer data from one computer to another. FTP allows units to share files and send data both reliably and efficiently. In this case, units uploaded data into the system, but were unable to retrieve a status report of the transfer.

As the CSSAMO team researched the problem, they received notification that the Iraqi theater was experiencing the same issue. They brought the SAMS-E contractor in and reconstructed the problem. After three days with the Stanley team’s assistance, the contractor realized their error. They had omitted a “get statement” command, which prevented the system from pulling the transfer status.

Major Williams had high praise for the team. “The team collectively possesses a wealth of institutional knowledge. They are highly sought after for their professionalism and input for most installation level STAMIS (SARSS) issues that affect the CTAS-C. They are also sought after by other installations for STAMIS problem assistance. The team renders selfless service in sharing their knowledge. They are focused on educating the soldiers on the proper use of the STAMIS systems and provide more intense over the shoulder training on the systems than even the fielding team and the III Corps Troop School combined. Soldiers know where to come for solutions and to get great training on the different problems they encounter.”

Stanley’s C4ISR Acquisition Engineering and Integration (CAEI) team in Charleston, SC, recently completed an External ISO 9001 Surveillance Audit in the Common Submarine Radio Room (CSRR) Integration Area. A semi-annual requirement, the external audit is performed to ensure that an organization still meets ISO 9001 requirements—quality system standards for development, production, installation and servicing. The auditor evaluates system processes for continual improvement and efficiency.

Upon completion, the external auditor was extremely impressed with the Stanley team. “That was the best presentation of a highly technical integration program that I’ve seen in 15 years of ISO auditing,” he said. Congratulations to the team for a job well done!

In December, Stanley’s Seat Order Management (SOM) team set out to celebrate a major software delivery to our U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) customer. The SOM team, located in Dumfries, VA, supports the Marine Corps by providing maintenance and new development to PRISM, a USMC financial management tool with roughly 40 users around the world.

The latest release of the PRISM application marked the team’s third major software delivery since Stanley was awarded the contract in 2006. The team, led by Tim Singstock, includes Stanley employees Heather Catalfamo and Tairbek Pazylbekov, as well as Segue Technologies employees Bonnie Betts and Victor Jones and Tetrad Digital Integrity employee Charlie Moffitt.

The group celebrated their accomplishment with lunch and ice cream out, followed by a visit to the National Marine Corps Museum in Quantico, VA. Senior Programmer Bonnie Betts served as the team tour guide since she helped with the commemoration of the museum in 2006. The state-of-the-art museum is a tribute to U.S. Marines and uses interactive exhibits and artifacts to bring the history of the Marine Corps to life. The team enjoyed the tour a great deal. “It makes me want to enlist,” said Victor Jones, senior analyst.

Employee Samuel Benavides presents at the 2007 Tri-Services Corrosion Conference

Training Specialist Judson Troop poses for a photo as children dig for treasures at the children’s holiday party in Lawton, OK

EMPLOYEE NEWS

Employee Presents Survival Analysis of Aging Aircraft

Over 110 children attended the children’s holiday party in Lawton, OK this year—an annual tradition for Techrizon employees and their families. Many employees volunteered their time to run games, serve food and hand out prizes at the party. Aside from an appearance by Santa, employee Judson Troop’s treasure hunt was the main attraction for the attendees. Judson works as a training specialist in the Training Development section in Lawton.

Judson’s display started out as a small booth for the children’s party several years ago, sparked by his personal interest in pirate folklore. Over the years, Judson’s booth has turned into an elaborate display of treasure maps and bones where children dig for hidden treasures, claim their prize and even walk the plank before getting sprayed with silly string. Currently, Judson is working on a children’s book about pirates called “Crossbones and Cutlass,” and he has written several short stories about pirate adventures.

Local “Pirate” Steals the Show in Lawton

Samuel Benavides, a Stanley employee and senior materials engineer at the U.S. Coast Guard’s Aging Aircraft Branch in Elizabeth City, NC, was selected to present at the prestigious 2007 Tri-Services Corrosion Conference. His presentation, entitled “Survival Analysis of Aging Aircraft: Probability Modeling of Censored and Confounding Coast Guard Corrosion Failure Data,” was attended by corrosion experts from the Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration, NASA, foreign military services, academia and industry. As aircraft fleets age, the time-dependent effect of corrosion threatens the integrity of their structure. Sam has introduced an advanced statistical method to analyze the probability of airframe failure due to corrosion. Through the use of survival analysis techniques, Sam is developing time-to-failure rate functions for the Coast Guard’s fleet of search and rescue helicopters. He is also exploring the influence of historical maintenance data and determining how interacting variables impact the corrosion failure rate.

Sam’s effort is improving the understanding of aging aircraft corrosion failure, while demonstrating the successful broadening of survival analysis to corrosion engineering. He was also invited to represent the Coast Guard on a keynote panel in the Joint Council of Aging Aircraft Conference. The panel is titled “Corrosion Prevention and Control—How the Services Approach It.”

Employees Recognized for Army Experience AbroadStanley employees Jack Riley and Ralph Sebacher were recently highlighted in the 598th Trans Tribune, published by the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command 598th U.S. Army Transportation Group. Jack and Ralph both joined Stanley after retiring from the Army. Jack currently works on our AWRDS contract in Charleston, SC, and Ralph is retiring from Stanley on May 31 after serving as vice president of Army programs for more than a decade.

The Trans Tribune celebrated 50 years of U.S. Army presence in Antwerp and Rotterdam, Netherlands, and interviewed Jack and Ralph about their Army service experience at the Military Traffic Management Command (MTMC) Benelux Terminal in Rotterdam. The MTMC Benelux Terminal manages the receipt, handling, documentation and port clearance of all Department of Defense sponsored cargo transiting Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg) ports.

Jack served in Rotterdam from 1983 to 1985 as Commander of the MTMC Benelux Terminal. He remembers the most exciting period of his command as the planning and execution of three return of forces to Germany (REFORGER) exercises in a two year period. The REFORGER exercises began in 1969—after the U.S. announced plans to withdraw 28,000 troops from Europe—to demonstrate our commitment to NATO and prove our ability to quickly deploy military forces from the U.S. to Europe in the event of conflict.

From 1980 to 1984, Ralph served as the Director of Operations for MTMC Transportation Terminal Group, Europe. He fondly recalls his memories in Rotterdam and the great people that he met while there. One such memory included Ralph working with the Dutch Ministry of Defense to allow a U.S. vessel to load ammunition at a seaport in the Netherlands—an operation that the Dutch had not previously allowed. “They were the four best years out of my 30 year career in the Army,” Ralph noted.

Stanley Employee “Moonlights” as Astronomer

While Hank Poppe spends his work day as a senior animator on our Joint Fires and Effects Training System (JFETS) contract at Fort Sill, OK, much of his free time is spent enjoying computers, photography and his new Schmidt-Cassegrain 8-inch telescope. Astronomy has always been an interest of Hank’s, and with his new telescope, he spends many late nights out underneath the stars.

During a lunar eclipse last summer, Hank and his brother photographed the sky from 3:00 am until 7:00 am, taking roughly 60 pictures of the moon as it passed through the Earth’s shadow. During these viewings, Hank attaches his camera to the telescope lens, which is then attached to his laptop. This allows him to see on the computer screen what the camera is capturing through the telescope. Afterward, he uses a computer program to paste the images together and illustrate how the eclipse progressed.

Hank is active in the community and enjoys sharing his work with others. Most recently, he assisted his local astronomy group with setting up a viewing at Fort Sill, giving the community an opportunity to see Mars at its closest. He also captured the Messier Catalog objects as well as Saturn’s opposition—an event that occurs when the sun is on one side of Earth and Saturn is directly on the opposite side. The result is that Saturn is fully illuminated by the sun and appears disk-like. According to Hank, “It is always a great shot!”

On April 24, two Stanley offices were filled with boys and girls eager to learn about their parents’ work as our Huntsville, AL, office and headquarters office in Arlington, VA, participated in the national Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day®. The day is designed to expose girls and boys to what a parent or mentor in their lives does during the work day and show them the value of their education.

At each location, the children enjoyed hands-on activities, demonstrations and toured the facility. Badges and business cards were distributed for “official” business and by the end of the day, the young audiences not only had a deeper understanding of their parent’s occupation, but more knowledge of Stanley’s activities around the world.

The Stanley Heat pose for a team photo with their new uniforms

Employee Faith Harbiston swings hard at a team practice in Charleston

Twenty-five employees from our Charleston, SC, Corporate Production Center banded together to form the Stanley Heat, a company-sponsored softball team. According to Coach Randy Thompson, “It’s really good to see everyone getting some exercise while having fun. The biggest challenge is teaching some of the people who have never played before the fundamentals of the game.”

Many employees enjoy the practices and games as stress relief and a great way to relax with coworkers outside of their typical work environment. In early March, the Stanley Heat held a scrimmage with another local team—the Outsiders—to assess areas of strength and weakness. “Our batting improved significantly the second time up to bat,” said Joe Robinson from Logistics. The Stanley Heat had their first game on March 30 at the local Hanahan softball fields.

Bring on the Heat

Congratulations to the winning team of our annual basketball tournament held in Lawton, OK. The team included employees Meghan Bolt, Jared Cleland, Brandy Crandall, Roland Leatherman, Mark Pollard, Neil Riley and Beth Sharp.

Tournament games began in April and are a company tradition. All employees are invited to join in on the fun, regardless of experience or skill-level. Teams are drawn at random and employees are able to get to know each other better as they practice and ultimately vie for a spot in the championship game. “It’s a lot of fun for everybody, skilled or not, and the competitive spirit makes for some great games,” said tournament organizer Gary Weise.

Lawton Crowns Basketball Tournament Champions

Stanley sadly lost employee Charles Montgomery of our Huntsville, AL, office on January 11. Charles served the AMCOM community since 1965 in both government and contractor roles, providing considerable expertise in developing and evaluating aviation and missile technical documentation. He started with Stanley in 2005 and worked in the Technical Data Management area. Charles is survived by his wife Virginia, three children and 11 grandchildren.

Fort Campbell employees gather at the Bowl for Kids’ Sake fundraiser benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Clarksville

| Kevin Alvey, Kelly Spindel, Pat McFarland and Erin LeBlanc brave the cold at Maryland’s Sandy Point State Park

Stanley Employees Take the Plunge

On January 26, the temperature was 38 degrees and a 7 mph breeze blew over the icy shores of Maryland’s Sandy Point State Park on the Chesapeake Bay. Although this may not sound like typical beach weather, it was exactly what the organizers from Maryland’s Special Olympics had in mind when they organized the 2008 Polar Bear Plunge—a fundraising event where thousands of people quickly jump in and out of the cold water.

Among the more than 12,000 plungers were Stanley employees from our Joint Strike Fighter and U.S. Marshals contracts. With the aid of their teammates, Kevin Alvey, Pat McFarland, Erin LeBlanc and former employee Kelly Spindel raised more than $4,000 in support of a new Special Olympics initiative called the Young Athletes Program—an innovative play program for children that focuses on early intervention in the development of critical physical skills. In total, the record-setting plunge raised more than $3.5 million for Maryland’s Special Olympics programs.

After last year’s record-breaking efforts, employees in Huntsville, AL, came ready for their eighth Relay for Life appearance on May 2, supporting the American Cancer Society’s main fundraising event of the year. The Stanley team did not disappoint—the team raised close to $16,500 and walked a total of 524 laps throughout the night!

Team members included Lonnie Ables, Cindy Byrd, Lisa Chenault, Sue DeLary, Donna Hopper, Cathy Irwin, Claudia Layton, Lisa Maddox, Tamara Montgomery, Michelle Pearson, Heather Pitts, Tonya Presser, Latha Ranganath, Sharon Sanchez, Daphne Welford and Jeff Williams.

Huntsville Relay for Life Team 2008

During the months of January and February, our Dumfries, VA, office participated in a D5 initiative—“Donate Dollars for Denim Days in Dumfries.” The effort was aimed to fund care packages for military members overseas through the Operation USO Care Package program.

Employees were encouraged to wear denim to work and make a small donation to the collection. Upon seeing the extraordinary results of the D5 initiative, corporate contributed to the effort and care packages will be sent to 60 soldiers on behalf of Stanley. The packages will include prepaid international phone cards, sunscreen, toiletries and messages thanking them for their service.

Fort Campbell Employees Bowl for Kids

Stanley employees at our Fort Campbell, KY, office participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters Bowl for Kids’ Sake fundraiser in early March. Bowl for Kids’ Sake is the organization’s largest fundraiser of the year, and the Stanley team did not disappoint. They were able to raise $800 to donate to the cause!

For more than 40 years, the bowling event has supported Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies throughout the country. This particular fundraiser benefited the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Clarksville, TN—a community organization that matches at-risk children with adult volunteers who serve as mentors. All donations are used toward general operating costs and keeping the expense down for participants, both the children and their mentors.

Many employees at our Fort Campbell office have been involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters for a number of years, as both children and adult volunteers. Participants in the Bowl for Kids’ Sake fundraiser included Keith Bridgeforth, Tonia Castillo, Mathias Chapman, Johnna Durham, Aubrey Hart, Henry Ingram, Dwayne Johnson, Carol Merriweather, Derrick Merriweather, Kelvin Powell, Demones Rucker and Charles Weiss.

The Admirals football team pauses for a team picture in Laguna Niguel, CA

3101 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 700

Ar l ington, Virginia 22201

w w w . s t a n l e y a s s o c i a t e s . c o m

Employees at the California Service Center (CSC) in Laguna Niguel, CA, formed a flag football team — the Admirals. The team, led by Quality Manager Derek Pepper, also included CSC employees Carlos Gonzalez, Eddie Tagoai and Joshua Schnoor.

The Admirals played their first game on February 10, with a hard fought loss. Over the next couple of weeks, they began to establish chemistry and even welcomed special guest and singing icon Warren G to their defensive line.

In the fourth week of the season, they faced their biggest challenge—the defending league champions who had not lost in more than 11 years. After a rough start, the fan-favorite Admirals mounted a comeback with two interceptions, one by Derek Pepper and the other by Simo Tagoai. Inevitably the team fell short, but found renewed confidence. “I am happy to have the opportunity to promote fitness and teamwork and enjoy the family environment of our local flag football league,” Derek said.
