On Saturday evening we held our very first Faarms Annual Christmas Party. I believe that it’s always a great idea to begin as you intend to continue, and we intend to continue with a culture of Celebration and Fun!!
Many of our clients, mentors, partners and supporters came along for an evening of feasting. As per our value of “working together,” or, in web 2.0 speak, “crowd sourcing” everyone enjoyed cooking for themselves on the Mongolian BBQ, followed by 3 of the largest Pavlova’s I’ve seen.
Some of the highlights included our first Awards Ceremony, including prizes:
- A “Ship’s wheel” to Gary Dorey, from Burfords, our Accountant for “Steering us in the right direction”
- A “Telescope” to Luis Ortega for “Continuing to see the vision”
- A “Compass” to David Burela for “Staying the course”
A fun night was had by all – there were inquiries about strength, virility and vegetarianism; passionate debates about innovation and evil empires; but mostly just a celebration of our achievements with those who helped us get there.
We’re looking forward to 2010, the year of the launch!
