We need your help!
As a key part in maintaining relationships, we've established the Alumni Club for former employees as an appreciation for their efforts and dedication in forming what the organisation is today. The Alumni has been created to provide members with the opportunity to stay informed with projects and proposals, foster business relations and network with other club members.
Memberships for the Alumni are extended to all former employees and contractors. If you know of someone who may be interested and has not been contacted by the Alumni yet, please let us know by emailing us at alumniclub@mainroads.wa.gov.au or call 9323 4972 as we would like to involve all employees.
Main Roads Alumni Club Annual Event 2010
In November 2010, the Main Roads Alumni gathered on a Wednesday afternoon to catch up with colleagues and old friends, and to take part in what was known as their Mission:MR10.
Following on from past years with the ever popular quiz theme, Alumni members were Secret Agents for the day, collecting their lanyard badges as they entered through a doorway of blue and red flashing lights – to their headquarters.
The Alumni Agents chose their teams, and sat down to complete their first Mission: Question and Answer...a quiz. Each table had their own code name – Red Gravel, Green Crush, and Silver Shovel to name a few.
With table decorations including walkie talkies, handcuffs, and magnifying glasses, the theme was set and our guests ran with it.
Now, hidden around the room were some small orange ‘stress’ traffic cones, from our Innovation team.
It was presumed that Alumni guests would see these hidden and include them for their scavenger hunt.
The expression Young at Heart has no better example – several Alumni members retrieved full-size traffic cones from who knows where, brought them back upstairs and sat with them for the rest of the afternoon. No extra points could be given for this effort, but Main Roads staff assisting on the day were all extremely impressed (and amused).
The quiz was finally decided by a sudden death round, with the winning Agents taking home a bottle of wine and box of chocolates each.
