Staff holiday party recap
12.14.16
Staff members are still raving about last Friday's holiday party at Rusty Scupper. The food was plentiful, as was the fun. After such a challenging fall, it was great to see folks cutting a rug on the dance floor and smiling broadly in the photo booth.
A huge thank you to all who participated in the afternoon activities, especially those who entered the Ugly Sweater Contest. Your enthusiasm and willingness to wear cutesy/glittery/illumated/tacky/ borderline offensive apparel encouraged us all to get into the holiday spirit. Congratulations to Julia Felton and Lamont Witherspoon, our Queen and King of the Ugly Sweater.
Many thanks to Tosha, Candice, Kathy and Emily for organizing such a wonderful event. You can relive the magic by checking out the photos here.
