2009 PCG’ers…Thank You!!
- Portland Corporate Games would like to give a big thanks to everyone
that participated in the 2009 games, with a special thanks going out to the
team coordinators who took the time to put everything together for their
respective companies. It’s a big job and without you the games wouldn’t
happen. Thank you to all the volunteers as well that came out to help at
each event and support their companies. Last, but not least all the
participants. Along w/ the team coordinators you make these games happen.
We sincerely appreciate everyone taking the time to come out and represent
his or her company and we hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did. We
look forward to 2010 and beyond!
A Recap Of The 2009 Games
-This years games were highly competitive from the start and saw the leader
board change after every event. Heading into the closing ceremony the
Corporate Cup was completely up for grabs with Stockamp (311 pts),
Willamette Dental (309 pts) and TriQuint (368 pts) all setting their sights
on the prize. Not far behind lurking was Alpine Mortgage (240) & Orthopedic
& Fracture Clinic (236). With a slew of points still up for grabs (Closing
Ceremony/Silent Auction/Scavenger Hunt Tally/Charitable Cash Donations),
the Corporate Cup was clearly up for grabs. Even Yahoo & Aloha Dog & Cat
were poised to throw their hat in their ring for a top 3 finish!
When the dust settled we literally had the closest margin for the
respective 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd place finish in the history of the games!
TriQuint finishing with 446 points, Stockamp with 431, and Willamette
Dental 421. Respectively each company made a huge push w/ the Auction and
attendance to net 78 points, 120 points and 112 points respectively in
order of the finish above. Rounding out the field Alpine Mortgage held off
the defending champ OFC for the 4^th place finish with 278 points to
OFC’s 244. Rounding out the field were Yahoo 166, Aloha Dog & Cat 127,
All Pro Blind Cleaners 74, Sendoodles 26 and Providence St. Vincent 8.
Certainly you can see how vital every point is when it comes down to the
final standings, let alone competing in all the events w/ volunteers as
well. Congrats to all of you that participated and to those as well that
won individual medals for respective events. It’s to be commended.
So there you have it; a big hand for TriQuint our 2009 Corporate Games
Champion! Congratulations to all of the employees that made this
championship effort happen! Hard work and great times paid off! This is
TriQuints first PCG title after taking 3^rd place in 2008, and there is
word OFC is already in preparation to take back the title in 2010. Though
I’m sure Willamette Dental, Yahoo, Alpine Mortgage, Aloha Dog & Cat and
future companies will have something to say about that.
Survey & What’s in Store!
