TriHealth and the Cincinnati Reds have partnered to recognize local companies and essential workers who have continued to serve our community during the pandemic.
The Frontline All-Stars presented by TriHealth includes 20 banners outside Great American Ball Park featuring the photo of an employee who serves as a representative of all the “heroes” from that line of service, which include: healthcare, public safety, grocery, restaurants, food manufacturing, energy, waste management & recycling, postal services, transportation, military, critical manufacturing, education and information technology.
“TriHealth is very excited to partner with the Cincinnati Reds in presenting the Frontline All-Stars Program,” said Jeanette Altenau, TriHealth Director of Community Relations. “It’s an honor for us to recognize each of these frontline workers who represent essential services sectors that continued to work throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. TriHealth and the Reds share a deep-rooted history of commitment to this community – and both organizations know that these Frontline All-Stars made all the difference to our community in 2020.”
The 20 banners are located on the northside of the ballpark near the Gapper’s Alley gate overlooking Johnny Bench Way.
“We are so grateful for the sacrifices made by the employees in the essential services businesses that continued operating throughout this pandemic,” said Phil Castellini, Reds President and Chief Operating Officer. “Honoring their efforts as our Frontline All-Stars along this public walkway at Great American Ball Park gives everyone a chance to share in our appreciation for their help.”

This recognition is awesome, not only for the individuals honored and the organizations represented but for the city to notice and admire as well.

Wish there was actual recognition for us who actually worked at the tents. I worked at a location every day from March to July in the freezing cold, blazing heat, rain, and snow. We were verbally abused by patients and random strangers who thought we were a state testing site, barely given time for lunch or any kind of breaks, risked heat fatigue, and when any complaints or ideas would be brought up by us we were scolded or told to "go with the flow". For working from 7am to 6pm (sometimes 7pm), myself and many others from the sites have been given ZERO recognition and then laid off and had to either try and find an open position within trihealth or look somewhere else completely. Trihealth couldn't even say thank you with a case of bottled water for us or anything. I find this post not only disappointing, but insulting.
