I am very proud to have all of you as employees.
Addison Organization values its employees, and this extended holiday break recognizes your efforts during that challenging period. The company will remain closed from 12 December 20XX through 5 January [following year], a total of 25 days. Work will resume on 6 January [following year].
You will also receive a Christmas gift tomorrow from me as a token of my appreciation. A printed copy of this notice will be provided tomorrow.
