Summer is in full swing and that can only mean one thing. That’s right – Fish’s annual Summer Fun. Every year at the Fish HQ, the whole team gathers for two days of team bonding activities which is usually accompanied by food, drinks, games and activities.
When I joined Fish in the beginning of the year, this was one of the most anticipated events of the year, so my expectations were set pretty high. Did it live up to the hype? Heck yeah it did, and more.
The festivities kicked off in the office with an afternoon of food, cocktails, and games produced by the agency gurus, Sam and Andie. The first game was a version of 20 questions, but the Fish edition. Each team member had a picture of another colleague placed on their forehead, and it was up to us to describe who they had, without giving any work-related hints. It was fun (and hilarious) to hear everyone shouting fun facts about each person, not to mention I learned some new things about my team members. But my favorite part was the next game, which of course involved putting our CEO, Lorne, in the hot seat. With categories ranging from agency knowledge to personal facts, three teams were tasked to get in Lorne’s head and answer what we thought he would say (blessed to say I had Marisa on my team). From his most used sayings like “sup” or “good stuff” to what his go-to drink is, the team did not hold back on their answers. As always though, he was a great sport about it.
But we didn’t stop there. The next day the team put our sushi rolling skills to the test, and it was soy much fun (see what I did there?) Fun fact: this was my first time trying sushi (I know, what the heck, Natalia). Anyways, it think it’s safe to say we all left the sushi rolling class as experts.
My first Summer Fun was a total blast thanks to an amazing group of people. Tune in for another Fish recap in December to see what else we have planned for our annual holiday party!
