At FPBA, one of our core company values is fostering team spirit, so it’s no wonder that our favorite time of year is Spirit Month! An annual tradition, Spirit Month is a celebration where our office comes alive with themed days and competitive games that challenge our team members to think creatively and work together. This year’s Spirit Month was certainly one for the books!
It all began with FPBA Day, where we dressed in our FPBA-branded attire and played Giant Jenga at the kickoff happy hour. It was a high-stakes game with Team 1 pitted against Team A (naturally no one wanted to be Team 2 or B). Heart rates spiked as the Jenga Tower got higher and higher until finally it all came crashing down and the blocks tumbled to the floor. In the end, Team 1 took home the win!
Next up was Pajama Day, where we came to the office dressed in comfy loungewear and played a lively game of Charades. FPBA team members embraced the theatrics with unforgettable performances of running from zombies, snowball fight frenzies, and firefighters rescuing a kitten.
For Wacky Hat Day, we dusted off our silliest hats and tossed them in the air graduation-style. A shark hat went rogue and tried to eat another cap! Luckily, no hats were injured in the making of this photo; we told the shark that hats are friends, not food. The game of the day was Blank Slate, where FPBA team members had to “complete” the word on the drawn card and match answers with other players.
Always ending Spirit Month with a bang, we brought out all the stops for Decades Day, where we dressed in our favorite eras (’70s was the winning decade) and teamed up for an epic relay race through the ages! Teams rushed to decode an emoji-themed riddle; give a rockin’ performance with a paper instrument; pass under a limbo bar; toss and catch a newsie hat; move a cookie from their forehead to their mouth using only their facial muscles; play a mini-game of cornhole; hula hoop for 10 seconds; and finally hold hands with their teammates while passing the hula hoop from one end of the linked team to the other. Some team members thought up creative solutions for each challenge, while others divided and conquered according to their strengths.
Spirit Month may be over, but the memories will keep us smiling for months to come!
