November 6, 2012 > Corporate Games Corporate Games Submitted By Bryan Cobb The City of Newark held its annual Corporate "Olympic" Games October 8-19. In its 21st year hosted by City of Newark's Recreation and Community Services Department, over 200 participants from 10 local companies competed in 11 different events including: 3-on-3 Basketball, Shooting Skills, Coed Dodge Ball, Brain Game (Table Game), Laser Tag, Coed Kickball, Fun Run/Walk, Coed Volleyball, 9-Hole Golf, Coed Indoor Soccer and Bowling. Each event was very competitive as companies tried to earn as many points as possible in each event since not only was the winner and runner-up awarded prizes for each event, but points earned determined overall first place and runner up for the games. Companies competed in two divisions determined by number of employees. Division I Alameda County Water District Union Sanitary District City of Newark Cargill Salt Morpho Detection Inc. Evergreen Oil Division II Morton Salt Newark Library Chamber of Commerce Revance Therapeutics Awards will be presented at the November 8, 2012 Newark City Council Meeting. The City of Newark would like to thank all participating companies and especially team coordinators. Their enthusiasm was responsible for the success of the games. Next year we hope to include many more Newark companies. We also would like to thank Laser Tag Inc., Mission Hills of Hayward and Clover Leaf Bowl for hosting our event. Everyone wins through participation in the Corporate Games. Companies interested in participating next year can contact Bryan Cobb at Bryan.Cobb@Newark.org.
