July 2018 saw the first combined PAKCO Summer excursion, which included a day with roller coasters and an evening celebrating completed work, good food, and our growing team. Shortly following recent launch anniversaries, with the pa|nyc team entering its 6th year of existence and K&CO launching its 4th year, we were spent a sunny day together getting to know the recent additions and preparing for some of the upcoming departures.
The day started with a drive down to 6 Flags / Great Adventure, with (mostly) matching t-shirts, and a bumpy ride on El Toro.
The evening celebration took place at the shared kitchen space of The Ludlow, a recently completed rental building in Philadelphia, that features exquisite interiors by K&CO.
With catering by Porta and booze curated by Krista Ninivaggi herself, the night started off with all the right notes.

Chilled wine, chilled beer, and multi-purpose citrus – check.
…and a couples shuffleboard challenge, of course.
