McGill’s Gatsby Themed Holiday Party: A Festive Celebration of Teamwork and Service
MCGILL’S HOLIDAY PARTY
The Annual McGill Holiday Party in Asheville at the Crowne Plaza was a night to remember. With a Gatsby theme, guests were transported back to the roaring twenties as they enjoyed an evening of glitz and glamour. The party had everything you could want – an awesome band, delicious food, and a photo booth with props that provided the perfect opportunity for employees and their guests to capture the night’s memories.
MCGILL YOUNG PROFESSIONALS GROUP EVENT
The morning of the Christmas Party, McGill’s Young Professionals Group organized a fun event at The Track at Asheville. Employees and guests gathered for some friendly competition in a Sim racing tournament. The top three drivers took home trophies and bragging rights, while everyone enjoyed a fun afternoon of games and trivia, as well as a delicious lunch from Bear’s Smokehouse Barbecue. It was a great way to kick off the festivities and get everyone in the holiday spirit.
MCGILL TENURE AWARD
During the party, McGill took the time to recognize the hard work and dedication of its employees with tenure awards. This year, Jamie Carden, PE, the Knoxville Office Manager was honored for his 10 years of service to McGill.
MCGILL CHRISTMAS PHOTO COMPETITION
The Christmas photo contest winner announcement was another highlight of the evening. Each office had submitted a photo for the contest, and it was exciting to see the winning photo revealed. The Pinehurst office was this year’s big winner, and their prize was the coveted Dennis, the traveling Gnome trophy. It was a fun and light-hearted way to recognize the creativity and teamwork of the offices.
MCGILL OFFICE SERVICE PROJECTS
In the spirit of giving back during the holiday season, each McGill office had participated in a service project throughout the year. Those efforts were recognized in a presentation during the party, and each office manager spoke about the cause their office supported.
McGill’s Asheville office volunteered at WNC Rescue Ministries, and Black Mountain Childrens Home, the Hickory office volunteered at Habitat for Humanity and the Salvation Army, the Knoxville office volunteered at Boys and Girls Club of the Ocoee 
Region Sutton-Hooker Unit, the Pinehurst office volunteered at the food bank, the Raleigh office volunteered at Pullen Park, the Shallotte office volunteered at the Brunswick Baptist Association Toy Store, the Roanoke office Volunteered at Feeding Southwest Virginia, and the Williamsburg office volunteered at the Virginia Peninsula Food Bank.
It was heartwarming to see the impact of McGill’s commitment to service and community involvement.
