Purpose: Encourage department conversation while eating a healthy meal.
Duration: One day, during the lunch hour or for an after work party
Details: Take some time to share some heart-warming, and healthy chili with your department! This is a great activity to have during the cold months of the year. The best part of doing an activity like this is getting amazing recipes from others. Read what Financial Services did for their Chili cook off:
"The faculty and staff were invited to create their best chili or fall dessert to share (enough for 12 people). They had judges pick the winner and they all benefited from a good meal. Their council provided corn bread and drinks to be included in their lunch. Everyone was welcome, even if they didn't bring a chili or dessert to share."
Outcomes: Build department unity while eating together.
