BBBS participants

On Wednesday, April 5, the NFTA partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Erie, Niagara, & the Southern Tier (BBBS) to host a mentoring day.  There were over 50 individuals involved from the NFTA and BBBS. 

The day began with a welcome from our Executive Director Kim Minkel followed by the VP of HR and Talent Management Karen Novo, TAPD Chief Brian Patterson, and ARFF Chief William Major. 

The group had the opportunity to spend time with their NFTA mentors, watch a fire safety demo, tour OCC, take a bus ride, and see TAPD K9 team members in action.  It was an informative and fun-filled day.  Each Little also received a completion certificate and a gift bag presented by Ms. Minkel. 

Thank you to all the NFTA employee volunteers and team members across the authority who helped make this day so memorable.
