The Shadow Lawn Inn Family

Meet the new owners of Shadow Lawn Inn


Jamie and Mary Ann Gallagher are the proud owners of Shadow Lawn Inn.  Although they are new to the business, the business is not new to them... Shadow Lawn Inn has been owned by Jamie's parents for the past 24 years.


Together with much help from their family, both extended and immediate, they operate the Inn as a year-round business.  Jamie is a graduate of St. Mary’s University (BComm).  He spent 3 years at JD Irving in the lumber sales department and then 10 years at Xerox as a sales manager.


Mary Ann is a graduate of Mount Allison University (BComm) and St. Mary’s University (MBA).  She spent 3 years each at Irving Oil and NBTel as a

project manager before opening Benjamin’s Books: A Children’s Bookstore in Rothesay.


Although the couple has achieved much as business people, their greatest accomplishment is ongoing; that of raising a family of 4 young children: Daniel, Mac, Eliza and Nora.

What makes the Shadow Lawn Inn experience so unique? The People who work here, of course!

Here are some of the people in our Shadow Lawn Family...


Rachel Scoville
Rachel Scoville is no stranger to Shadow Lawn Inn. She finished her internship here last year, between her 1st and 2nd year at Holland College's Culinary Institute of Canada in PEI. A recent graduate, she is back as a full-time member of our kitchen team.

Shown here in a rare moment of relaxation on the patio, Rachel, a Hampton resident, shared that she always cooked as a kid and loved it. When it came time to decide what to do after high school, the decision was easy. She hopes to continue her education in diatetics someday.

New Faces at the Inn...
Louise Chiasson Will MacGillvray
Sara Shillington Tess
You'll see a few new faces at the Inn this summer. Our summer students, Louise Chiasson, Will MacGillivray, Sara Shillington and Tess Robart will be looking after our customers along side our familiar Shadow Lawn Inn family!

We are happy to announce that our Red Seal Chef, Nancy Fox has accepted the position of Assistant Manager of Shadow Lawn Inn.  Although she will still be advising in the kitchen, you'll be sure to see more of Nancy as she will be spending more time in the front of the house with our patrons. 


When Kathy Smith is not at Benjamin's Books advising customers on wonderful children's books, you can find her at the basketball court, the hockey rink or in the basement of the Inn.  Kathy handles all things accounting here at Shadow Lawn Inn. 


Kathy's background as a business teacher has prepared her well for the challenge of keeping the Inn in good order everyday.
 

Joan GreenCustomer service is her thing. Joan Green has worked in the retail industry for most of her career, notably as a manager at Canadian Tire where, she says, it's a great team to work for and where she honed her customer service skills.

Joan, originally from Bathurst, has been a Quispamsis resident for over 30 years. Her husband, Brian Green, is one of the managers at Kennebecasis Drugs. She has two grown daughters, Laura and Breanne.

 

Linda Hallman

I'm surprised our Head of Housekeeping, Linda Hallman, isn't basking on a beach somewhere. Hot weather is her thing, and there isn't much of that around here lately!

Linda loves being where the sun shines and where there's a sandy beach. In fact, she's off to Florida next week.

Linda has been with Shadow Lawn Inn for thirteen years. With our renovations well underway, Linda is working feverishly on all the details to get our rooms ready to unveil! She describes herself as a mean gardener. Watch out flowers, here comes Linda!



Angela CooksonYes, that's a load of fresh baking, warm from the oven, baked lovingly by one of our very hard workings chefs! Angela Cookson has the perfect name for her profession, don't you think?

Hailing from Halifax, Angela is an NSCC grad who worked for a season at the Keltic Lodge in Cape Breton, and in France, in the Alps!  When Angela isn't working - and she's always working - she likes to read.



Meet Charlie Saunders

Charlie is a dedicated, reliable employee.  He has been with the Inn for over 14 years. 


No matter the situation, Charlie can solve it with his calm, methodical approach.  His attention to detail is appreciated as evidenced by our well-kept gardens in the summertime.

Charlie is married to Eleanor and is a proud father to Stephanie who is in her second year at Saint Mary’s University.


Meet Colleen Shaw. 

She has been working at Shadow Lawn Inn for almost 5 years.  Colleen has lived in Quispamsis for 30 years and has 3 sons, 4 sons if you count her husband. Oops, did she say that?

She loves going for walks with her sons’ dogs.  She says they keep her in shape!  Colleen loves listening to music and looks forward to going to her hometown whenever she can to see her family on the Miramichi.  She also loves camping in the summer. She enjoys knitting and someday looks forward to traveling around Canada.  They might even try down South, maybe!


Something most people don't know about Colleen? She won a poster contest in Grade 5 for depicting the future as a image of the world with a larger computer on it! Our resident visionary!
