It was a cozy carnival Christmas at the annual Office of the CIO Holiday Party on December 13 at the iHotel. Around 130 employees spent the evening catching up with colleagues, getting to know new ones or meeting remote workers in-person.
The festive event kicked off with a cocktail hour and carnival games with a holiday twist like snowball toss, spin the wheel and duck pond. Players won fun prizes ranging from candy to donated swag items. Another popular game was the annual “Jingle Mingle Scavenger Hunt.” But the star of the show was the gift card and prize raffle!
A big thank you to the event planning committee for thoughtfully putting together the holiday party.
