While working for Rogers Media, the company had decided to celebrate the 75th birthday of the owner, Ted Rogers.  He was also the owner of our local Major League Baseball Team, The Toronto Blue Jays, which gave the company access to the Rogers Center (formerly, the SkyDome).  A facility that can hold approxamatley 60,000 people.  The entire field was set up a carnival atmosphere with games and clowns and food stands, all compliments of the company.  Then we were treated to a show from a Canadian Band, Glass Tiger, who were quite popular in the 80’s.  I was totally in my element and we all had such a fantastic day.  It’s nice to have a company give some appreciation to it’s employees.
