GSPD’s John Day Earns Island Spirit Award

GSPD’s John Day Earns Island Spirit Award

The Coastal Alabama Business Chamber recently presented its Island Spirit Award for November 2016 to John Day of the Gulf Shores Police Department. Megan Smith, VP of Business Development for the Coastal Alabama Business Chamber, cited Day’s dedication to his job and the City of Gulf Shores. “Not only does John help our children safely cross the road, but he greets them by first name, a smile, and a ‘Good Morning’! He has even taken time after his crossing guard shift to speak and encourage students who are having a bad day, he finds a way to uplift their spirits, learn from their mistakes, and to have a better day. I am thankful for John, and thankful for someone that takes so much pride in their job.” The Island Spirit Award is presented monthly by the Coastal Alabama Business Chamber.
