“Camp War Eagle, how can I help you? Can you hold while I transfer you? Thank you.”


Who did you just have that minute conversation with?  Well you’re about to find out who the full time office staff is.  We’re the ones who answer the phones, read the mail and gather the faxes.  We stock the shelves, send out the packets and file the paperwork.  We work five days a week, rain or shine, to ensure the business runs smoothly.  You see us through the office window and walking to and from our cars.  We are the office staff and were here to serve you.

Now you can meet this lovely group of ladies: 

Penny-Associate Director of Administration
Penny is our Associate Director of Administration          
And her son Tristan is an Osage sensation.
Spending most of her days in cowboy boots,
She was in a third grade class of one and quite a hoot.
Her high school located out with cattle and berries,
Is the same alma mater as Texas governor Ricky Perry.
Outside of work she’ll watch Tristan play football and wrestle,
And continue to look for ways to be used as God’s vessel.      




Sara- Office Manager

Sara our Office Manager has just begun a life of wedded bliss;
Rich working here with maintenance she just couldn’t resist.
Back in her day she had many talents to show;
Including playing Mary in the Christmas play three years in a row.
As a third grade Girl Scout she was a bowling champ above par,
Then moved on to be a seventh grade track star.
Her dog Benny is a welcome face after a day of working hard.
Our gratitude for her couldn’t be summed up with any Hallmark card.
      



Meagan-Office Assistant/Group Coordinator
Meagan, an Office Assistant and Group Coordinator jockey,
Grew up in Vermont playing rugby and field hockey.
Already a mother of one super cute boy
In March she’s expecting another bundle of joy.
Until then she’ll be re-upholstering tables and chairs
To be sold at boutique shows and the War Eagle Craft Fairs.
At work, church or home, she’s the first to lend a hand,
Her teaching and stories aid in her being so grand.


Michelle-Office Assistant
As an Office Assistant from the Sunflower State,
Michelle rolls in through the front gate.
Of her pet catfish, Finley, she is quite fond.
Through reading and movie watching they share a special bond.
Crocheting happens to be her one special skill;
Many requests for hats and scarves she’s been happy to fill.
After living in the state for little over a year,
She’s thankful for all the friends that she’s made here.




Sydney-Office Assistant/CWE365 Administrator
Syndey has taken a dual role of Office Assistant and CWE365 Administrator;
To multiple offices she serves and couldn’t be doing greater.
Leaving soon for Haiti she has only one wish:
That she doesn’t get stung by another jellyfish.
For her next adventure she has a big choice
She can already check off trying out for the Voice.
As the unnatural chaos of camp has become her norm
She’ll refuse to eat fruit unless it’s in its natural form.


Cheyenne-Office Assistant/HR Assistant/Head Wrangler
Our newest addition, Cheyenne, has the most job titles.
She has the office, HR and Head Wrangler to file.
Graduating from Big Pasture High School she was at the top of her class;
Even if there were only 10 others, it was still a big task.
As she left her hometown of Cookietown, OK
She became an OSU Spirit Rider and polo she’d play.
The best part about her moving to this Arkansas corner
Is that to kids and staff, she’s no longer a foreigner.
