Setting sail for success!

Huge thanks to Sue for orchestrating the entire day seamlessly.

Elva, you’re a rockstar—keeping the ship afloat and helping every team reach their full potential!

 

Robbi kicked off the day with a rundown of events, setting the stage for an unforgettable experience. Each staff member had the chance to express gratitude and share their expectations for the day. Then, the real adventure began as we were divided into four diverse teams, each led by one of our amazing manufacturing maestros.

The color-coded chaos unfolded as we were handed t-shirts to embroider and materials to craft flags for the upcoming sailing race. Teams not only had to brand their shirts but also design flags that embodied what Maddison Safety and Lithgow Fire mean to them.

With a two-hour time limit, the “gophers” in pink shirts sprinted around, ensuring every team had what they needed. The red team, aka the Pirates, conquered the waters on Squid, claiming victory. SS Together Forever (blue), Team Elva (green), and the Maddison Mariners (purple) navigated the waves with style, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

 

Expert skippers and crews briefed us on the course around Belmont, Marks Point, Coal Point, and Belmont Bay. The race was on, and teamwork took center stage as staff members actively participated in sailing the boats. Laughter filled the air, but for some, gripping the boat’s sides was a testament to the thrilling wind and boat tilts.

As we safely returned, a beautiful lunch and refreshing beverages awaited, creating the perfect setting for reflections and shared stories. Consensus? This was undeniably the best team-building day ever!

 

Here’s to the spirit of adventure, teamwork, and the incredible individuals that make Maddison Safety/Lithgow Fire an exceptional team.

Cheers to more adventures on and off the water!
