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...
You probably recognize our Red Seal Chef, Nancy Fox. We're happy to announce that Nancy has accepted the position of Assistant Manager of Shadow Lawn Inn.
You'll be sure to see more of Nancy - she'll be spending more time out of the kitchen, with our patrons.
When Kathy Smith is not at Benjamin's Books, the basketball court or the hockey rink, she handles the 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 every day! If you want to say hi to Kathy, you may have to holler down the stairs to our business office to get her attention.
Customer 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.
Originally from the Northwest Territories, Kristjan Ehrenreich also lived in Prince William, New Brunswick. Prior to becoming a chef, Kristjan was a forest firefighter for 5 years and subsequently pursued a Bachelor of Arts at St. Thomas University.
It was his love for cooking and making meals that led him to culinary school - he enjoyed cooking at home but wanted to learn on a professional level. He pursued his passion through culinary school at NBCC in St. Andrews and just recently graduated in May 2011.
Kristjan competed in cooking competitions in both Maine and Edmundston and last summer spent 2 weeks at a culinary school in Austria. His favorite dish is Cajun chicken penne and he still takes time out of his busy schedule as a chef at Shadow Lawn Inn to cook at home. Making his life even busier, Kristjan is a proud new father of twins - a boy and a girl who are just a few months old. Outside of work he enjoys looking after his twins, watching movies and traveling the world.
Dalia Elkhazin is a third year business and marketing student at 
Wilfrid Laurier University, and is helping out with marketing this summer at Shadow Lawn Inn. While marketing is what she loves, in her spare time you will find her traveling the world, at the beach, doing art work or playing piano.
Chelsea Ca
rpenter is graduating from high school this year as part of the class of 2011. She is here for her coop term, learning about the hospitality industry. In her spare time she likes playing sports, camping and spending time with her friends and family.
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!
Yes, 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!
