In an ongoing effort to build community, Human Resources (HR) staff from across campus gathered for an afternoon of board and other party games. Event orgranizers turned the downstairs training room at 221 Whitney Avenue into a fun factory with stations for each game.

Attendees tried their hands at the stacking game Jenga, rack game Connect 4, or the dice game Left Right Center. There were several rounds of other traditional board games including Clue and Monopoly, and the more fast-paced games like 5 Second Rule, Wheel of Fortune, and Scattergories.

Desserts and beverages were enjoyed almost as much as the time colleagues shared catching up with each other. In between the gaiety, there was conversation and memories shared about how family and friends put their own twists on these games. Everyone agreed it was a great way to reconnect and have some fun with colleagues they do not see every day.

Stay tuned for information on future events.
