Michelle Adams honored for performance at patriotic Viera community

(VIERA, FL) January 16, 2024 – Michelle Adams has been named the 2023 Employee of the Year for Indian River Colony Club, the Viera 55+ golf community for military veterans. An employee since 2021, Ms. Adams was recognized during the community’s December membership meeting and presented with a $500 monetary award. Adams is an executive assistant at Indian River Colony Club, with duties that include the review and edit of corporate documents and correspondence, calendar management for executive staff, meeting coordination, attendance and minutes for the Board of Directors, IRCC Foundation and multiple committees, along with other administrative tasks for executive management.

John Robinson, General Manager, has nothing but praise for his executive assistant.

“In just two short years, Michelle has been recognized three times for excellence on the job,” said Robinson. “Her professional knowledge, her outgoing nature and degree in communications have all been invaluable to me and the entire organization. Michelle is a great fit here at Indian River Colony Club and a natural choice for Employee of the Year.”

All 120 full-time employees of Indian River Colony Club are eligible for the annual award. Department managers each nominate an exceptional member of their team and then cast votes for the most exemplary employee. The Employee of the Year award is sponsored by the not-for-profit Indian River Colony Club Foundation. The purpose of the IRCC Foundation is to provide grants for educational, medical, emergency, and other charitable purposes to employees and residents of IRCC and to organizations that assist individuals who are current or former members of the Uniformed Services of the United States.

Viera’s very first neighborhood, Indian River Colony Club is known as “The Place Patriots Call Home.”  A haven for military veterans, the par-72 private golf course community has a patriotic culture and country club amenities for active adults aged 55 and over.
