Last week, we had our July Quarterly Event of Mini Golf at Max’s Sports World. It’s been so long since we had a Quarterly! Our last one before this was in January when we played retro games at Pin Up Arcade. That’s because the team-building event we usually have at around April was cancelled due to COVID. This particular event was special because there were a couple of my colleagues that I had not seen in person since January. Plus, we’ve welcomed back Shauna into the team!
We enjoyed the sunny, summer weather though it was definitely very hot that afternoon. We split up into 3 teams of 3:
Rob, Matt and Sean S.
Sean L., Sean M. and myself (aka Dev-Sean’s and me!)
Ryan, Todd and Shauna
We played 9 holes in the Blue Course, all the while practicing social distancing and/or wearing a face mask. Beyond a doubt, the highlight for me is Sean L.’s (aka Legger) “chipper” move! I totally LOL’d (laughed out loud) every time he did the trick. And what an impressive trick it was! By “chipping,” he jumped the ball pass the barrier, thereby cutting down the strokes it took to get to the hole. It was a risky trick as one time he chipped the ball and made it fly out into some bushes. (Side Note: please excuse my golf terminology or lack thereof as I’m no expert in the subject.)
There was a lot of comradery between all of us with a lot of cheers and helpful tips throughout the afternoon. It’s always very amusing and memorable when we play our quarterly event games.
A team that plays well together works well together!

From all of us at REM Web Solutions, we wish everyone a Happy Canada Day! Please note that REM will be closed on Wednesday, July 1st.

If you have just started a small business, you have probably gone through the traditional checklist of keys for your success such as having a great product, a great staff, procuring the necessary licenses, and of course having the financial means to operate the next year. If you are serious about your business taking off, you might have dug deeper and even took the time to develop a strategic plan for growth, a marketing plan, and launched your social media accounts.
Out of all those crucial markers, however, one of the most important to have in 2020 is a great website for your business. Local businesses often overlook a web site because they feel their customers already know them, but this is an extremely short-sighted view. The internet has expanded customer bases from those in towns like Kitchener, to those in cities across the world. The way people look for products is heavily reliant on internet searches so if you do not have a web presence, you are invisible to thousands of potential customers.
Another belief that people still think of when considering developing a web site is that web design is a timely and complicated process. This just simply is not the case anymore thanks to user-friendly web content management systems such as WebWiz@rd™ made by REM Web Solutions, a Kitchener-based Web Design & Development company. Many customers without any experience in web design have found that managing a website is a simple process that will not occupy as much of their time they thought it would.
REM Web Solutions has made web design simple and quite fun once you allow yourself to get creative. If you are ever in Kitchener, you should stop by and meet the team yourself to learn more.

The majority of the services we provide are funded by the Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) but if you prefer to pay directly, we are always glad to work with families to arrange private care.

It has a very nostalgic, retro feel that would appeal to casual players and hardcore gamers alike. It’s also in a perfect spot uptown in a plaza where university students could come in to take a break from studying. Check out their Facebook page here.
In the arcade is a nice assortment of games such as super-retro ones from the 70’s that’s completely mechanical and analogue to machines that have bright, flashy digital screens. Some are familiar classics such as Pac-man, Super Mario, Tetris and Street Fighter, while others are based on TV or movie franchises like Terminator, Guardians of the Galaxy or South Park.
Competitive streaks came out as each tried to best their colleague by getting the highest score or by winning in a one-on-one game. A few of us got particularly competitive while playing 3 games:
