Happenings Around the Office!

Every Thursday is Office Night here at Blue, Inc. This past Thursday we went to Top Golf in Wood Dale, Illinois, and it was a blast! Besides getting to watch the resident golfers in the office--Glenn and Dan Webster--hit 300-yard drives down the fairway, we also got to play bags and enjoy food and drink with our coworkers, family, and friends. We rented out two bays on the driving range, so there was plenty of room for the amateur golfers to practice. There wasn't enough room for Dan, apparently; he hit a few balls straight over the net and into the parking lot!

With football season coming up, we may have to go back for a fantasy draft party. It was a great time, and a great opportunity to unwind from a long four days of work. Everyone in the office will be looking forward to the next Office Night; I know I am.
