TEAM RETREATS
B3 team retreats were held last weekend at the B3 office.
Team retreats are the first official team get together and a chance for teams to work together and get to know each other better.
Team members bonded over some fun and challenging ice breakers and team building exercises. These included a spaghetti building project, rope challenge
and each team received their own team "monkey". A good time was had by all.
