Last Friday, December 21, we held our first Annual Fun Day event at our (relatively) new branch in Charleston, SC! We had 17 local employees in attendance, as well as Ryan Kimbro, the Maintenance Division Manager, and Todd Myatt, the Installation Division Manager, who both drove from NC to spend the day with the crew.
The installation and maintenance employees all came together to compete in fun events, including cornhole, a leaf blower obstacle course, a pine straw relay race, and a race to see who could replace the trimmer line in a weed-eater the fastest.
Employees used leaf blowers to move a dodge ball through the obstacle course
This race involved loading and moving pine straw with a wheelbarrow
Winners of each event were awarded $50
Here are the winners of the competitions:
- Cornhole: Jake Williams
- Obstacle course: Albert Smith
- Wheelbarrow race: Albert Smith
- Weed-eater: Melvin Seay Jr.
When the competitions were finished, everyone helped remove a palmetto palm tree that had fallen. After all, landscaping isn’t just fun and games!
Following the competitions and tree removal, everyone went to Wasabi Japanese Steakhouse for lunch. There, Ryan, Todd, and Butch (the branch manager) presented the end-of-year awards.
Perfect Attendance award: Thomas Thurman
Employee of the Year: Duane Milligan
