You would never have guessed that it was storming outside based on the demeanor inside Andretti Racing this past Wednesday. In NASCAR, the Andretti name is synonymous with Formula 1 racing, but in Atlanta it means basketball shooting contests, endless skee-ball duos, and 30 mile an hour turns on a premium indoor racing track. Kontera and Moxie Interactive opened the forum for mid-week fun by spending the night kart racing, playing arcade games, and relaxing over the bartender’s choice drinks.
This was a great opportunity to step away from the desk and enjoy each other’s company – and believe me we sure did enjoy! However it wasn’t all fun and games, everyone’s competitive spirit was in full gear on the race track as there were U2 tickets, helicopter tours, fine dining, and limo rides to be won. Who knew this group could turn on the velocity so quickly? It may be common industry protocol to enjoy post-work activities together, but rarely do the creative and competitive juices mix so well at such an event.
And now for the winners…..
First place winner Kara Carpentier, Sr. Account Executive for Garnier Fructis, took home two floor seat tickets to the upcoming U2 concert in October.
Kelli Travis, Sr. Media Planner for Verizon SMB, won a luxurious limo tour of Atlanta.
While Kara and Kelli may have been higher in the standings, Chris Sherrer, Media Coordinator for Verizon, was the big winner of the night. Chris’ business card was drawn and he walked away with a helicopter tour of Atlanta AND also snuck away with a 3rd place finish and dinner for two at a local five- star restaurant.
Congratulations to Kara, Kelli and Chris!
It is safe to say that when Moxie and Kontera get together for their next event, it may be hard to beat.
