Staff will socialize outside of work, creating stronger bonds! Assign teams to pay to play! Tailgate Party: Have a Monday night tailgate during football season. Each employee pays $10 to attend. When work lets out, gather everyone together and serve hot dogs, wings, chips, and beverages and watch the game as a team while enjoying great food. Walk A Mile in My Shoes: Ask staff to come to work in their craziest pair of shoes prepared to have a wild and crazy lunch. Serve items such as FOOT-long subs, CORN chips, and SHOESTRING french fries. Play Blue Suede Shoes, Kicking You Out, Footloose, and Boots Were Made for Walking. Charge each employee for lunch. Have Breakfast on Us: Contributors to the campaign are honored at a "Have Breakfast on Us" event. Senior management and supervisors help prepare and serve the menu. A piece of the tie: One campaign coordinator wears the same tie during the campaign week. Each time an employee turns in a pledge card the employee cuts off a piece of the tie. Not only is it great fun for the employees, but it is a great conversation piece that motivates employees to turn in their pledge cards. "Show Your Spirit Day": One day during the campaign encourage employees to share their spirit by digging into their closets and pulling out their old high school jackets, team jerseys, and old uniforms. They could also wear their children's jackets and jerseys. On that same day have your LA SCCC meetings, a potluck, or some sort of special event allowing the employees to interact and share. Penny Wars: Each department is given a jar, or some other container. The object is to have the most money in your jar. Pennies are added to the total and silver coins, the nickels, dimes and quarters are subtracted from the total. One department can sabotage other departments by putting their silver into their jars. A department will retaliate by putting more pennies in their jar and putting silver in the other department's jars. This will go on throughout a designated number of days. The jars should be kept in a central location where they can be monitored by a neutral party, most likely the campaign coordinator. At the end of the designated time - the neutral party will total the jars and the department with the highest total wins. Card/Board Game Tournament: This event can take place during lunch breaks and can consist of a number of board and/or card games to be played. Set an entry fee and acquire prizes for this event. You can make the event more interesting by introducing teams and/or interdepartmental competitions. Other Ideas:
