January
2nd, 2019) The Cayman Heart Fund (CHF) recently received a generous
donation from DMS Broadcasting Corporate Cup.

On
Saturday, October 12th, the Truman Bodden Sports Complex was the
place to be for corporate entities seeking fun and comradery. You
see, that was because it was the 6th Annual DMS Broadcasting
Corporate Cup. This year, 24 Cayman companies signed up; it was a
record number.

For
those members of our community who are unfamiliar with this event,
the Corporate Cup is a mini Olympics, so to speak. Companies sign up
a team to go up against other companies in team building events like
Tug Of War, Sack Races, an Obstacle Course, Soccer Kick, Netball,
Swimming (at Lion's Pool), Target shooting (with CISSA), and Climbing
at the YMCA Alpine Tower. There are 10 events in all, and every event
is hard-fought. Traditionally, each team works hard to be the best,
and this year was no different.

At
the end of the day, the team with the best overall combined score
wins the Corporate Cup and takes possession of the Corporate Cup
trophy to display in their office until next year's event when they
have to return it - and then it's up for grabs once again. This is
the achievement that each team strives for. However, along the way,
there are other benefits to be had. As mentioned before, it is
essentially a team-building event, and nothing forges relationships
like going through a challenge side-by-side. Blake Rogers, Operations
Manager for DMS Broadcasting, states, “It's an amazing day with
some of Cayman's most competitive professionals, pitted against rival
companies, but also with the best sportsmanship on display! Plus, it
all benefits a local charity. For Companies looking for a
team-building event, and to give back to the community, it doesn't
get much better than the annual Corporate Cup!"

One
point to make is that this event not only serves a purpose for dozens
of corporate professionals to blow off steam and challenge each
other. It is a fundraiser for a local charity. This year, the
featured charity was the Cayman Heart Fund and the event helped raise
$7,200 for this worthy cause.

This
year Deloitte won the event, with the second-place finisher, Cayman
Enterprise City, only one point behind. There was a tie for third
place between CUC (last year's winner) and KPMG. Overall, the
competition was close, and there were many examples of great
achievements. This was really a great event, organized solely by DMS’
team of eleven individuals.
