November 2025 Employee of the Month Ron Gillenwater
The November Employee of the Month is Ron Gillenwater. Ron has worked with the Town since 2019 and serves on the facilities team as a custodian but that does not speak of the commitment that he has to the Town. His normal buildings to maintain is the Visitor’s Center, Utilities/Fleet Maintenance Building, Fitness/Training Center, Courthouse bathrooms, Wastewater Offices and Gillespie Building. All this plus set up at the Visitor’s Center for events.
Ron is very dependable, and his work ethic has been evident throughout this work in many departments; he sets up multiple events each week and often on weekends which ensures visitors and residents have a memorable experience here in Jonesborough. Ron also maintains a clean work environment for the departments and buildings which he services. Ron does an incredible job with his duties and goes beyond making sure his tasks are done correctly and in a timely manner.
Ron’s initiative demonstrates his above and beyond attitude. He is always willing to help others while continuing to keep his work done. Recently, the facilities team was short a staff member due to some requested time off, but Ron has stepped in to help with Town Hall, McKinney Center, and set-ups. His attitude is one of let’s get it done.
Thank you, Ron! You are appreciated!
