The feel good feeling of helping others

There are many things in life that bring us joy – family, friends, successful careers, scoring the hottest ticket in town to hear your favorite band. But, right up there is knowing that something you did, purchased, or even the check you wrote, made life a little bit better and easier for someone who really needed your help. Giving is a remarkable thing and gosh, if feels good. That’s the feeling at C&A.

Take me out to the ball game!

The College World Series has become a tradition at C&A. As in past years, C&A hosted a fun-filled family event at the ballpark on June 17th, the night of the CWS Opening Ceremonies. It’s a celebration we look forward to every year – a time for us to come together outside of the workplace and be a part of the excitement that is “America’s pastime”, baseball.

Walking together

Lately, I’ve become really fascinated by what brings people together. You know, that sense of community you have with people you may not know well or even not at all simply because you’re connected by a common thread.

Move it.

Generally speaking, at least one-third of our lives during the week is spent at work. That’s a lot of time. Combine that with the “sedentary” nature of our jobs (spent mostly at our desks) and that could be a formula for disaster, unless we each make the effort to eat well, move more, and give our health the attention it deserves.
