“Wow. I just had the privilege of having Lynsey Gallagher dump about 10 gallons of water over my head, and I could not be more proud.” That was Tiffany Neill this past Wednesday “Soaking it up for ALS” on behalf of Lautman in the ALS CEO Soak of 2023.
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who contributed. Lautman—together with our friendly rival Production Solutions—raised over $10,000 to help make ALS a livable disease. The money being raised is going to work right away and the breakthroughs have been fast and furious. Calaneet Balas, the President of The ALS Association (who was also soaked at the event) said in her speech, “There are four treatments for ALS, two have been found in just the last year and that can be directly linked to fundraising.”
On July 11 our fearless leader Tiffany Neill will be suiting up to get soaked and support ALS Association! Every dollar we raise will support local families affected by ALS and fund innovative and comprehensive ALS research programs. Please join us in this fight for a cure! Donate to our team, "Lautman Soaking It Up for ALS" here: https://donate.dc.als.org/team/507181

Last week we held our annual all staff offsite in Washington DC.
People from across the country came together for team building exercises. One fun workshop was taking and evaluating our Disc assessment, where we learned about individual working styles.
During our down time some of us played 80's bingo, took a field trip to the National Museum of African American History and Culture, participated in the War and Peace bookclub, and celebrated Jenny's birthday!
It was great to get together and see everyone in person and connect with teammates near and far!

Lautman is proud to celebrate Black History Month. In the words of Barack Obama:
“Black History Month shouldn’t be treated as though it is somehow separate from our collective American history ... It’s about the lived, shared experience of all African Americans, and how those experiences have shaped and challenged and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so we can create a better future.”
Lautman's recently gathered for our annual book swap. Members bring their favorite book, wrapped and with a written description. Each person selects the book they are most drawn to and then lots of conversation and fun ensues.
There was a wide selection this year from Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow to Little Weird, to The Beauty of Dusk and The Honjin Murders.
For 2023, we're kicking things off a little differently. We're having a year-long book club dedicated to War and Peace! And for the month of January, our discussion will be on Min Jin Lee's Pachinko.
