Scavenger Hunt!


100_1372


Last Friday, Neverblue employees packed up their desks and got ready for the move. Once everything was securely packed and ready for the new office, we set out to explore the new area for the best priced food, activity and drinks within a 4 block radius of the new office. It was a roaring success.

Michael and Mitali set out a challenging course for us - many tasks involving interacting with perfect strangers. It was the initial strategy that was key to winning, though - we had 2 hours to hit as many locations as possible to gain points for the team. High value targets ranged from getting a travel cost estimate to counting the number of steps on the legislature building.

All the teams got pretty close on scores - we're a fearless bunch. The sun was shining and everybody was in high spirits! After forming human pyramids in front of the new office and hunting down tourists to take pictures of taking pictures of us, we ended up at the Bard and Banker pub to tally the results.

The first team to arrive at the Bard and Banker was the Super Affiliates (Jason G, Kiersten, Clayton, and Chris) unfortunately though their score was not the first place score. The Drinky Crows, ( Michelle, Tom M, Kelly, and Hardie) set a large bench mark with a score of 147, but it was not to last. Each team that followed them received increasingly higher scores. In the end it was the Neon Ninjas ( Breanne, Matt, Samantha, Katrena, and Elisa) that finish at the top with a score of 178!

What a great way to say goodbye to the old office! If you missed our move in photos, check the blog post below for photos of the new space! The winners of the scavenger hunt won a lunch paid by Neverblue at a restaurant of their choice from the many takeout menus that they collected.



The New Office

Neverblue's growth knows pretty much no bounds. We outgrew our old office and bid it a goodbye celebration on Friday (more on that soon!). We packed up and headed 3 blocks west to our much anticipated new space! What can I say - it's all that. We've really matured as an organization and our nice consistent new space really compliments our new look and feel. Without further ado, onto the photos.
