S.C. Swiderski hosted its second annual Health & Wellness Fair with the theme Fitness Fiesta- Spring Into Health this past Friday! Despite dealing with unpredictable weather of rain and snow on the days prior to the event, we had an amazing turnout with over 30 vendors and 80 employees!

We started the morning with homemade smoothies, protein balls, swag bags, and speeches from our upper management and our CAS Committee team. Our Operations Manager, Nathanael Popp, discussed the results of our Employee Culture Survey and shared some words of reflection for all employees!

After the presentation, we opened up our warehouse for games to be played. Games included Around the World, Push up contests, paper air plane contest, tippy cup, and tug of war!

S.C. Swiderski is committed to the health and wealth of its staff and relied on many amazing and local vendors in all areas of physical, emotional, financial and intellectual wellness to set up a booth during our Vendor Fair. Employees got their health passport filled in as they met and interacted with the various booths and watched demonstrations.
