As soon as employees arrived and the party kicked into high gear, it was clear that The TrueLogic Wet Republic 2014 was going to be a blast! The TrueLogic team started to arrive in Liquid Pool and Lounge just after 5PM. As the searing heat of the Manila sun starts to fade, the employees trickled in, lining the edge of the pools. We didn’t know where to look: at the buffet table with the mouth-watering grilled pork and chicken dishes, the inviting mini-pools, or the well-stocked bar. The drinks lining up the bar – Grey Goose, Patron, Jack Daniel’s, etc. – loosened up the hardworking peeps. It’s party time!
TrueLogic Townhall – Manila Ocean Park Edition The sun set, dinner was served, and the DJ began his set with some Rihanna remixes. Townhall kicked off soon after with Marketing Director Clayton and CEO Itamar as hosts.

After Townhall After Townhall, the merriment continued. The party people started dancing, swigging cold beer from the minibars, and chatting up with colleagues. Pocholo, a Jr. Web Content Writer, lightened up the event some more with a mesmerizing poi dance exhibition.
Games organized by Sam and Mica from Operations and the cash prizes given away were the highlights of the night. The first game, Beer Drinking Contest, saw the CEO being hailed as the champion. Followed by Trip to Jerusalem with the Department Managers dancing to Psy’s Gentlemen. Finally, teams from each group piled up wet-soaking clothes for The Wet Tower contest. Everyone who joined the midyear event felt it was a welcome break to the daily routine and that the Wet Republic was one of the year’s highlights. We all look forward to more fabulous company events in 2014 and in the years to come.
