Holiday Party 2025
If the holiday season has a superpower, it’s in the way that it brings people together. Before the calendars flip and the project boards take over again, we wanted to slow down long enough to look around and appreciate our people - the team that carries this place forward.
We ran it back at Topgolf again this year… mainly because it’s casual, the food and drinks are solid, and we couldn’t agree on anything else. We arrived to a warm, golden-hour lit landscape pleasantly contrasting the December cold, which instantly made this feel like the right call. The evening that followed was full of friendly competition, top-level heckling, and the beautiful dynamic in our company culture where support and clever banter are basically the same language.
Once we swung Top Golf out of our systems, we drifted over to Sport & Leisure in East Greenwich for the perfect nightcap. S&L always takes Christmas décor up a notch - like the lights and ornaments were fired from a cannon straight onto the walls, reminiscent of “Martha May Whovier” from Ron Howard’s 2000 classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas. If you know you know, if you don’t… well, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDrf6ug0EUw. We settled into the private event room, which feels more like an upscale lounge - artwork, trophies, pop-culture relics, a fireplace, the works. It was a proper wrap on the year with the people who made it what it was. (Big thanks to Jay & Nate at Sport & Leisure for the hospitality.)
Shoutout to our crew for always showing up, showing out, and somehow still having the energy to laugh (and grow) with us as we build what’s next.
