August 17th was a milestone date
for Logrus: the company had proudly celebrated its 20th anniversary
with a weekend of joy, imagination and fellowship in the countryside hotel
Tsargrad on the Oka river. The entire team of Logrus linguists, DTP experts and
programmers escaped the hustle and bustle of the big city on a 2-day adventure to
commemorate the 20 years of complex multilingual translations, software
development and unique technological solutions. It couldn’t have been more fun!
As soon as we arrived at Tsargrad, we were
welcomed by Alice, the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit, the Red Queen and the White
Queen — yes, the very characters from ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and 'Through the Looking-Glass'.
They carried us away into the marvelous world of fairy-tales where we had to use
all our savvy and rely on team spirit to deal with numerous challenges and
puzzles. However demanding these might have been, we’re no strangers to tricky
tasks and, finally, the prize was ours! It turned out to be the pass to the
next stage of our party, which took place in the hotel’s ballroom.
After the exciting fandango, we went on to
enjoy the amazing party feast, during which our management awarded select Logrus
employees and friends who had greatly contributed to the company’s development.
It was wonderful to hear our numerous old-timers reminisce about the early days
of Logrus!
Another
highlight of the celebration was the live concert. No invited band - Logrus
employees starred on stage! The
corporate band symbolically named DeadLine rocked the audience with covers on
popular songs and made everyone dance and sing along.
Apart from that, the party featured a lot
of activities to suit any taste: from football, tennis and paintball to
boating, quadriding, horseback promenades and waterslides. The night was
colored by impressive fireworks and went on with an improvised acoustic
afterparty.
Twenty years is a remarkable anniversary,
and Logrus has traveled far in the way
of development, growth and self-improvement. But it wouldn’t have been a
successful journey without the professional and dedicated team, the reliable
partners and the loyal customers.
Many thanks to all of you!
