Pine Oaks Lodge has passed its 2010 accreditation inspection, which is basically military lodging's version of an operational readiness inspection.

Eight major categories and 500 line items were inspected, and a score of 85 percent is required for accreditation.

The lodge got 87 percent, said Rick Macias, manager, noting, "All of the credit goes to the staff." Four of the lodge's 70 staff members - Marilyn Bussolini, Antoinette Majka, Xavier Hansell and Wanda Pearson - were singled out as "star performers," he added.

The primary mission of the 225-room lodge is to provide housing to government personnel traveling on orders. Reservations are also available to authorized government personnel on a space-available basis.
