Before heading down to Ruth’s Chris for our Annual Winter Party, CC Pace President Mike Gordon spoke at our corporate staff meeting and rolled out our business plan and new initiatives for 2015. Our corporate staff meetings give us an opportunity to bring employees together from our main office and various client sites to share what is going on with CC Pace and provides a great time to catch up with colleagues.
Immediately following our Staff Meeting, we headed downstairs to Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, conveniently located on the first floor of our building. Our Annual Winter Party is a rich tradition that began at CC Pace years ago. We once held our parties in December, renting out ballrooms at local hotels and other venues for the event. One year, a hotel lost our reservation and we had to hold the party in later months. The holidays are a very busy time of year and we found that having the party in the first quarter of the New Year actually served us well. Generally, there is less going on during this time of year and things are less hectic and we found that people enjoyed the new timeframe and we had higher attendance as a result.
Big hits at this year’s party included seared tuna, beef tenderloin, sliders, and a great selection of decadent desserts! It was a great evening to share with employees and their spouses. The planning was done by our very own Staffing Manager, Laura Campbell, who did a great job of organizing the event. We are already counting the days until next year’s party!
