Tired, sore, and exhilarated.

Those are probably the three best words we can use to describe our time with the 8th class of Auburn Hills University (AHU) yesterday.  The group did a lot of walking and climbing as our staff explained how the City strives to provide radical hospitality to developers, builders, and residents while ensuring high quality construction and safety.  It was quite a day.

For those not familiar with AHU, it’s an innovative team building program Auburn Hills holds annually.  It involves a small group of employees selected from across the organization.  The class meets one day a month, for six months, to learn what each Department does in an informal setting.  By getting together in this way, it helps our staff understand each other and in turn work better together.  Yesterday, it was the Community Development Department’s turn.

Below are some additional photos from our day:

Overall, it was a fun and exhilarating day.  Can’t wait to do it again next year!
