A Day to Remember<br />
By Nada Tahir<br />
The <strong>Rawabi</strong> <strong>Holding</strong> Open Day held on<br />
29th November at Sunset Beach promised<br />
an entire day of fun and relaxation by the<br />
sea for all female employees. However,<br />
it turned out to be all that and more as<br />
the gorgeous weather and scenic locale of<br />
the AlTurki chalet only accentuated the<br />
festive atmosphere and mood of the event.<br />
Since it was my first time attending the<br />
open day, I went in a little apprehensive<br />
about the program and whether or not it<br />
really would be as<br />
enjoyable as the<br />
itinerary suggested<br />
but came out<br />
simultaneously<br />
delighted and<br />
touched by the<br />
day’s activities<br />
and the warmth of<br />
those present.<br />
From an amazing<br />
beachside lunch<br />
under a cloud cover<br />
and conversations marked by laughter to<br />
plenty of snacks and food to boot, the<br />
day began on a high note that never once<br />
dipped with time. My favorite part though<br />
remains the boat ride that was so fun we<br />
took it twice. Lasting about an hour, the<br />
experience was made even more charming<br />
by the absolutely amazing weather that<br />
we were lucky to have on that particular<br />
day and needless to add the excitement<br />
on the dock was contagious. Surprisingly<br />
though, instead of tiring us out the<br />
cruise aptly rejuvenated us for what was<br />
to follow: games! Be it Taboo, Jeopardy<br />
and Charades or a hilarious ice breaking<br />
session and bridal dress competition, the<br />
games had all of us squealing, shouting<br />
and laughing throughout. Everyone<br />
participated and had a good time which<br />
for me, made this the perfect way to<br />
end a day marked by great company. I<br />
left the beach incredibly happy that I<br />
came and extremely touched by everyone<br />
present there. A special mention for the<br />
Corporate Communications Department<br />
for organizing the amazing day, Ms. Noaf<br />
and Ms. Rana for opening their home<br />
to us, everyone who came and made<br />
it so enjoyable and Muneera for single<br />
handedly devising the most fun and<br />
exciting games ever. It then goes without<br />
saying, I simply cannot wait for the next<br />
Open Day and a special note to all those<br />
who could not make it this year, do NOT<br />
miss it next time!<br />
