Juneteenth National Holiday

Celebrating Freedom

What is Juneteenth?

For those who may not be familiar, Juneteenth, celebrated on June 19th, commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. It marks the day in 1865 when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the end of the Civil War and that all enslaved individuals were now free. Juneteenth represents a significant moment in American history, reminding us of the importance of freedom, equality, and justice for all.

Observing Juneteenth as a country and a community is a meaningful step forward in recognizing the contributions and struggles of Black Americans throughout history. It is also an opportunity for us to reflect on our values and reaffirm our commitment to creating an inclusive and supportive workplace for all employees. On Juneteenth, bank and federal offices will be closed to commemorate this important milestone. Additionally, we encourage everyone to take this time to learn more about Juneteenth and its significance by following the link below.

HELP US WELCOME

Our New Employees

As we inch closer to summer, we'll be welcoming our new friends from Honduras, a vibrant country in the heart of Central America.

Honduras is renowned for its rich cultural heritage, a treasure trove of traditions and customs that we're eager to explore and celebrate. As they join us at the resort, we're looking forward to a journey of cultural exchange and camaraderie.

Their presence adds a vibrant new dimension to our golfing season, sparking curiosity and fostering meaningful connections that enrich our experiences. Here's to a season with friendship, discovery, and shared adventures. Welcome, new friends from Honduras!

We'll also be welcoming a group of international students to our community this summer from Romania, Ukraine, Russia, China, Colombia, and France! Our new International Coordinator, Jill Smith, is onsite daily to support our international help (she has a home at Hawk's Eye). This is our opportunity to showcase Northern Michigan and all we at SCR have to offer! Let's welcome our guests and make the most of the opportunity to learn from people of other cultures and experiences from around the globe.

Well-being Matters! 

Physical and Mental Health both contribute to overall health and well-being.  Here are the top Five Reasons to focus specifically on Men’s Mental Health and Well-being.

Stigma Reduction: Traditionally, men have been socialized to suppress their emotions and avoid seeking help for mental health issues due to the stigma attached to vulnerability. By focusing on men’s mental health, we can work to break down these stigmas and create a more supportive environment for men to seek help when needed.

High Risk of Suicide: Men are more likely than women to die by suicide. This may be partly due to factors such as reluctance to seek help, social isolation, and the tendency to use more lethal means of self-harm. By addressing men’s mental health needs, we can potentially reduce the rates of suicide.

Impact on Relationships and Communities: Unaddressed mental health issues in men can have ripple effects on their relationships, families, and communities. By promoting mental well-being among men, we can help foster healthier relationships and communities overall.

Physical Health Connection: Mental health is closely linked to physical health. Neglecting mental well-being can contribute to various physical health problems, including heart disease, obesity, and substance abuse. By addressing men’s mental health, we can also promote better physical health outcomes.

Gender-Specific Challenges: Men may face unique challenges related to their gender identity, such as societal expectations around masculinity, pressure to be the primary breadwinner, and difficulty expressing vulnerability. Addressing these gender-specific challenges is essential for promoting holistic well-being.
