including the Rose Brooks Center in Kansas City. Rose Brooks’ mission is to break the cycle of domestic violence so that
individuals and families can live free of abuse. We are honored to do our small part to help such an amazing organization that
assists the most vulnerable among us.
There are many people to thank for all their contributions this past year. We would not have been able to achieve these results
without the support and leadership of both the CSCS and Pancake Co-op Boards. It is an honor and a privilege to work with
such a dedicated group of people. I also want to thank all the people we work with at IHOP. Our collaboration together is
critical for our success. Most important of all, I want to thank every Member of my CSCS team led by Mark Smith, Dustin
Pittman, Paul Allegri, Chris McNutt and Mary Hempfling. They are all true professionals in every sense of the word guided
by our Core Values and dedicated to fulfilling our Vision of Creating an Unmatched Competitive Advantage for Every Member
Every Day.
Thank you for your support in 2018. I hope you find this annual report informative. We will continue to work hard to deliver
