No Rain on Our Parade

Amidst the pitter-patter of raindrops that showed no sign of stopping, we eagerly anticipated the sun’s arrival for our annual Family Summer Party. After a successful week of collaboration, this event was the finale of our quarterly Team Week, and everyone was looking forward to it.


Lucky for us, the rain ceased just in time, and the sun emerged from behind the clouds. Huzzah! This was the perfect start to a wonderful time spent with colleagues and their families.

An Unparalleled Location

As we arrived at the party, the enchanting venue of Waldgasthof Schmellbachtal captivated us with its hidden charm. We were warmly welcomed with a refreshing assortment of drinks and pizza. To our surprise, there was no cell reception, but that turned out to be a blessing in disguise. We were too busy enjoying each other's company to be distracted.

The venue’s extensive grounds offered something for everyone. There was a spacious terrace overlooking the lush greenery, wide open spaces for outdoor games, and a fun playground for the younger ones. As a bonus, adventure seekers could participate in the immense climbing course among the treetops, complete with zip lines and all.

The highlight of any gathering is undoubtedly the food, and our expectations were exceeded from start to finish. We were all looking forward to dinner, especially the ones who had worked up an appetite while testing their limits among the forest heights. On the menu was an inclusive summer barbecue that catered to every palate, along with a huge selection of drinks.

A Memory to Cherish

With the stars shining and the night growing late, the little ones went home, but the party didn't stop there. We turned up the music and kept our glasses full. The good times continued on the dance floor until we inevitably had to safely make our way back home. 

Our company's Summer Party proved to be a remarkable occasion filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable moments. It reminded us of the importance of enjoying life's simple pleasures and forging meaningful connections that go beyond the confines of the workplace. Needless to say, we are already looking forward to next year!
