Blue sky strategy: The secret to innovation and standout events
See why Blue Sky Thinking is the key to unlocking an unforgettable event, keynote, or moment.
We’ve got spirit, yes we do!
If you’re at all familiar with Duarte, you know we’re more fun than the average bear. And bears are a pretty good time. Take Yogi for example. When he’s not stealing your lunch, that guy is a hoot.
But I digress.
Duarte is fun.
Case in point, last week marked Duarte’s 4th Annual Spirit Week. This year’s theme: Summer Through the Ages. Every day, we paid homage to a different era, by dressing up and doing an activity appropriate to the time period. We ended with week with a (dress-down) day at the park, complete with good eats, cold drinks, and a Spirit Week Relay Race.
Check out the photos below, and hearken back to the good (and maybe not-so-good) ol’ days.
