2022 GumGum Earth Day Beach Clean Up & Games 🌎

In recognition of Earth Day, on Thursday, April 21st GumGummers got together for a beach cleanup and some healthy competition with a tournament of beach games at Santa Monica Beach, hosted by Fit City Adventures. For the first 45 minutes, GumGummers combed the beach for trash and discarded items, and to make it interesting the person that gathered the most trash with the most interesting items won some swag from Fit City! The winner of the most interesting trash item was Abe Thierry, who found a pillow! Our CEO Phil came in at a close second with quite the amount of trash, which included items such as a jar of peanut butter!

After the cleanup, the group was split into two teams, the Green Goblins and The Gold Diggers, for a fun tournament of beach games, which included corn hole, ladder toss, and bocci ball! The teams were both very competitive but in the end, the Gold Diggers took home the gold!

After the games, GumGummers gathered together for a Bedouin-style picnic where they did a round of intros and discovered that there were a couple of members of our team visiting from Mexico, Chicago, Colorado, and a special guest, Laura Hicks, Product Manager at Playground XYZ visiting from Australia.
