“I received news on a Sunday that the vendor I secured had to cancel due to a family emergency. The team builder was on Monday… So, I decided to call her at the last minute, to see about availability the next day. Without hesitation, she confirmed. It’s PlayTyme turned a section of our cafeteria into a mini Game Show set… By the end of the event, the entire room was filled with laughter and smiles.”
