Spooky Set-Up

The title says it all. The spookiest set up wins! Have a little fun with
your pod/office decorating and don’t be afraid (or maybe a little…) to
express your pod’s personalities and creativities. We can enhance team
building aspects of this competition by encouraging teams of people to
work together on decorating.

Prizes: Prizes will be offered for best and most festively decorated
work area. There will be an individual contest for those who do not
work in pods and have desks/offices and there will be a group
competition for those who are decorating as a pod.

Rules: When decorating a desk please remember the following:

- Do not hang lights between cubicles or hang objects from the
ceiling.

- When using lighting, please use fluorescent rope, or shadow
and string lights.

- Please remember to turn them off at the end of each work
day.

- Be safe, be respectful, and have a blast!

Costume Parade & Potluck

opportunity for staff to wear costumes. Encourage your co-workers to
join in on the fun and dress up! Our potluck will take place at this time,
