Wednesday, October 1, 2025 Everyday Champion! Congratulations to Local 501 member Patrick Pagtakhan, our October Everyday Champion winner! National Patrick was nominated by his coworker Danika Escalante. They both are employed by Seaside Hotel Vancouver. “Patrick deserves to be Member of the Month because of the way he shows up every single day, with a smile, great attitude, and a genuine desire to make people feel welcome,” says Danika. “As a bellman, he’s often one of the first faces our guests see, and he never fails to leave a great impression. “Guests regularly go out of their way to mention how friendly, helpful, and kind he is in their feedback. He takes the time to connect with people, whether it’s carrying luggage, offering local tips, or just having a warm conversation. “On top of that, he's always there for his coworkers, jumping in to help without being asked. Patrick doesn’t just do his job, he makes the experience better for everyone around him, and that’s something really special.” Do you have a coworker who makes a positive difference in your workplace? Express your appreciation by nominating your colleague for CLAC’s Everyday Champions award, and they could win a $50 Amazon card and a $50 CLAC Store gift card!
