The fun started prior to the event wherein all the staff was encouraged to form their own team, select team members, and design some catchy slogans and taglines for their teams. There was also a prior healthy online completion to the event and the team “United Tuskers” led by Mr. Narayanan K. of Service Accounts won the Coolest Team comfortably. United Tuskers also won the award for 100% prior online completion. The friendly Batter between the various team leaders added to the fun element prior to the event.

The event began with staff coming into the park on company-provided buses and with own cars and registering their teams. After a refreshing round of some welcome drinks and snacks, everyone was tapping to the tunes of Zumba Dance conducted by a professional Zumba trainer. Kids were especially seen enjoying the short dance and exercise.
Various organised games such as Rip Slinger, Minute to Win It, Poly Volley, Disc Golf and French Petanque were each played by competing teams, which have built a sense of camaraderie, fun, teamwork and sportsmanship among players. Team “Magnificent 7” led by Mr. Andre Lopez of Travel emerged as the overall Winner.
