KDCI Celebrating Thanksgiving 2022 With Turkey, Snacks, and An Overnight Trip to Laguna
It's the season to be grateful for our peers, leaders, and awesome food!
Some say Thanksgiving is only for Americans, but actually, the Thanksgiving culture has permeated the world!
It has surely reached the Philippines where our KDCI family is celebrating thanksgiving this 2022 by enjoying a feast in the office, as well as taking an overnight trip to Laguna. This Thanksgiving, our leadership prepared a lot of delicious food, fanfare, and even an out of town trip for our workers.
Our Version of Thanksgiving Dinner: Turkey, Mashed Potatoes, and Casserole
It wouldn't be Thanksgiving if there was no turkey! We got some catering service to provide a spread of delicious dishes in our office so our team members can have a taste of the good ol' American holiday.
Here's our team enjoying a feast of turkey, mashed potatoes, and casserole. With food laid out and everyone eager to dig in, thankfully we got a photo taken before the festivities began.
And to make our celebration truly ours, we added some much needed cake as Filipino gatherings will not be complete without one. The cake has a dedication in scrumptious butter cream frosting, saying “Happy Thanksgiving 2022”.
It seems everyone was psyched to grab a slice. As one of our teammates said, "The cake was awesomesauce!!"
Thanksgiving Hunt & Other Games
No Filipino celebration without some exciting games. To spice things up, the team played some Turkey Hunt. Here is a picture of our happy winners, all smiles with the chocolates, chips, and biscuits prizes they won.

Out of Town Overnight Thanksgiving Trip
Sometimes, spending everyday together at work just is not enough to truly appreciate all that our colleagues and friends do for us. That's why our team took celebrating Thanksgiving up a notch and spent the weekend at Woodland Villa, Laguna.
In the beautiful resort, everyone enjoyed the sunny weather as they swam by the pool, played various sports, and kicked back and relaxed. As the sun began to set, some of our members worked together to bring about a warm and tasty dinner that everyone feasted on.

Here is a photo of our team, wearing bright smiles after enjoying a warm and heartfelt dinner together under the summer night sky.
There are so many ways to enjoy this season. And as our KDCI family grows, this surely will not be the last celebration as each of our team events are becoming more memorable than the last.
For Thanksgiving 2022, KDCI is incredibly grateful to finally be enjoying this time amongst our precious friends and colleagues after two years of pandemic and community lockdowns. We hope everyone else is having a good time celebrating thanksgiving. Happy holidays!
