Your Favorite Employee Event Is Back, With a Lunar Twist! 🌙
Forget the turkeys! This year, Starport is celebrating the spirit of space exploration with a lunar twist inspired by Artemis II.
Get ready to launch! Participants will compete to see who can send a simulated lunar rock flying the farthest in this out-of-this-world twist on our annual Thanksgiving tradition. Think shot put, but with a space-themed spin! Competitors will be grouped into age and gender categories, with lunar rock weights tailored to each division.
Reach for the moon and take home a prize! Winners in each category will receive a $25 gift certificate to help make your Thanksgiving meal extra special.
Not interested in competing? No problem! Moon launching is a spectator sport, too. Come cheer on your coworkers, enjoy some stress relief, and share a few laughs as we celebrate the season with a little friendly competition. Join us for a stellar time and may the best lunar launcher win!
