TEAM BUILDING OUTING AT NAWAWALANG PARAISO RESORT


SUNDAY, AUGUST 24, 2014

I thought I'm gonna missed out again on a summer outing this 2014. Fortunately,
our project team were included in two-day and one-nigh team building activity
organized Amazing-Race-Style at the Nawawalang Paraiso Resort & Hotel in
Tayabas, Quezon Province last June 13-14, 2014.

Initially, the team building activity was planned with the official blessing of
the company (and I guess budget). However, as things turned out, the team
building was initiated by our own colleagues on their own. Nevertheless, I am
thankful that I became part of it.

The whole delegation is composed of staffs who are working on three different
project sites. We are grouped into 8 teams, combining personnel from different
sites to achieve familiarity and camaraderie. The teams who will garner the most
points in the different activities will win the winner-take-all prize of 30,000
pesos.

We left Manila around 6 am. We had our breakfast and a little side trip at the
serene and peaceful Kamay ni Hesus Shrine in Lucban, Quezon.

Around lunch time, we arrived at the Nawawalang Paraiso Resort & Hotel in
Tayabas, Quezon to the welcoming enthusiasm of the staff. They were the ones
facilitated the games and the activities of the team building.

After lunch, the competition began with the cheering competition for each teams.
Luckily, my GREEN team, was able to come up with a passable impromptu cheer.

Then the physical activities at the resort grounds followed. There was the
blindfolded-flag-gathering challenge, the coin-at-fingertips relay and the
hulahoops-on-body relay.

Indoor games at the resort function hall was next. There was the centipede race
and my favorite, the pass-the-ball-hit-the-bottle challenge.

Wet games at the swimming pool was my least favorite because I do not know how
to swim.

The evening culminated with dinner and the showing of pre-recorded dance & music
videos for each team. I was glad that I only had a cameo-role dancing. hehehe!!!

Even though we were not able to come out on top of the competition, I won just
the same - new friendship, new experience and unforgettable memories in this
summer outing of 2014.

SIDE TRIP TO KAMAY NI HESUS, LUCBAN QUEZON


SUNDAY, AUGUST 17, 2014

I started updating my blogs this last week of July 2014. I guess it's time to
update this one as well.

Last June 13, 2014, I finally experienced a company summer outing. Colleagues
have organized a summer excursion/team-building ala amazing race style.

Before proceeding to the actual venue of our summer outing, we did a side trip
to Kamay ni Hesus in Lucban, Quezon.

Kamay ni Hesus is a sprawling 5 hectare shrine in Tinamnan, Lucban, Quezon known
as healing center and a specially popular destination during Holy Week
pilgrimage.

The Shrine was built rising up a hill, culminating with a 50 foot statue of
Jesus Christ in outstretched arms at the top of the hill. The 14 Stations of the
Cross is depicted in the slope of the hill via giant statues, visitors need to
climb over 300 steps of stairs in stones to reach the top.

The Shrine was created in 1998 through the leadership of Fr. Joey Faller who
celebrates healing masses there regularly.

As our presence there was just a mere side trip. We had our breakfast at the
foot of the hill and then climbed the stairs to the summit.

As I walk the steps, I even met a batchmate in high school. We greeted each
other quickly and went our own separate way.

I totally agree that the place is perfect for some self-reflection and
meditation. I hope I can go back during the Lenten Season.

MISSING SUMMER OUTINGS :(


THURSDAY, MAY 23, 2013

It is raining now, here in Mandaluyong City. That means Summer passed yet again
and that I have not been to any summer outings this past two years.

February of last year, I was gainfully employed in a construction company.
Although there were talks of plans to have a team building summer outing, it
never materialized. Busy schedule at work has pushed the planned summer outing
all the way to October.

Mercifully, we had a team building summer outing at Club Balai Isabel,
overlooking Taal Lake and Taal Volcano. There we were able to have some games
but I do not think that camaraderie was truly improved by the event.

Right now, it was announce that we will have an outing this coming June 29th and
30th at a resort somewhere in Antipolo.

Although I would still be glad and thankful if this plan pushes through, I still
would be much happier if this happens during the Summer.

I pray that in these dates, the Sun will be cooperative in giving all of us a
last taste of Summer.
