All of us at Frause were so excited about starting a blog; we spent hours fighting over who would be responsible for the content. We drew straws, played rock paper scissors, even thumb wrestled for the honor. It turns out our interns have some strong thumbs (not to mention opinions). They also have the best opportunity to provide a “fly on the wall” look into the workings of Frause. Without further ado, we present Frause – through the eyes of our interns!

Monday Funday Makes for a Team Bonding Experience



Last Monday, the entire Seattle office came down to Portland for a team building and bonding day. Working in the Portland office, and having conference calls with Seattle every morning, had made me anxious and excited to finally put faces with names. Arriving bright and early Monday morning, our quiet office was full of chatter, jokes and laughter from the Seattle team members.

This was the first time the entire Seattle office had come to visit Portland so everybody was excited. The day was spent with a lunch at the Portland City Grill with a beautiful view looking over the city, and a team building scavenger hunt where groups of five were sent searching for little-know and hard-to-find information about the city. In case you’re wondering, the Benson’s Bubblers team was the winner with 43 points! The most points in the history of the game. Team Babes followed closely behind in second place with 40 points.



All in all, the day was a success, putting rain and weather aside. The day trip was a perfect way for Frause employees to get out of the office, reconnect and spend some quality time together. It was also a great way for unfamiliar faces, like mine, to become familiar with the rest of the agency.

Great post and super fun day. But perhaps I am biased because I was on the winning team. ;-)
