Month: November 2018

Ever since our first entry into the annual office Halloween Decorating Contest, we’ve wanted to do a 9-hole mini golf course — but the logistics in doing so are pretty tough (it takes a lot of resources and space just to make the plain holes).  For our 3rd year entry, we decided this was the year to make it happen!

Rallying the entire IT department together, we put together a Halloween-themed, 9-hole mini golf course, complete with caddy desk, custom maps and scorecards, signage, realistic greens, a windmill, and plenty of variety throughout the holes.

While we didn’t win the overall contest (again), everybody involved had a great time putting it all together and playing through the course throughout the day.  Check it out below!

While putting together my post for IT’s 2018 contribution to the comany’s annual Halloween Office Decorating Contest, I realized I’d never posted 2017.  Whoops.

So, here we are a year later, I give you our 2017 entry:  Star Wars.  While Star Wars costumes may be great for Halloween, it turns out decorating an entire office space for Star Wars is much, much more difficult.  In the end, it came off slightly like a young kid’s birthday party, but what can you do?    The crown jewel of our piece was a giant death star (which was a large weather balloon purchased from Amazon which was then painted by the team to resemble a Death Star.

Check it out below.
