Feliz Navidad at Posadas Celebrations

It was in Vancouver in the early 2000s where two festive fellas launched the first Ugly Christmas Sweater Party. The idea soon spread all over Canada and the US, and later around the world. And we think our employees who attended our recent Posada celebrations not only embraced it but took it to a new level. In fact, we’ve never seen so many pigs and bacon ornaments adorn such truly tacky—yet so, so beautiful—ugly sweaters.

Huge thanks to our TN Leadership Council for planning three simultaneous Posada parties for all employees and their families. The evening featured dinner, games, contests, and fun raffles for everyone.

Here’s to Ugly Sweater Contests all around the globe. Merry Christmas and Feliz Navidad!
