WIT 🤝 The Land WIT rocked and rolled in Cleveland last week, with several members of the team getting to meet up with partners and attending some slammin’ festivities! The crew kicked things off with a great time in great seats at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse to see a Cleveland Cavaliers pre-season game with pre-mium Friends of WIT. 😉 The next morning, the WIT team continued their adventure with additional Cavs friends at a local breakfast spot to catch up and talk shop before their dapper evening with Cavs players and staff at the impressive Wine & Gold Gala benefiting the Cavaliers Community Foundation. This 007-themed event was impeccably decorated with numerous gaming tables and live music by an incredible band covering all the classics. Members of our team especially enjoyed the sumptuous desserts and rubbing shoulders with greats at the Blackjack table. ♠️ Needless to say, it was a wonderful experience 🤩 (WIT cleans up nice, eh?) WIT teammates headed out the next day to the hallowed halls at the Cleveland Browns offices to connect in person and brainstorm a heap of creative new ideas for the rest of this season and beyond. Shout out to the big dawgs for the warm welcome and great lunch! Thank you to all of The Land for so graciously hosting our intrepid team! Without your support, partnership, and creativity who knows where WIT would be today. Cleveland means the world to WIT, and we’re already looking forward to another trip! 🫶 #WinWithWIT Brandon Jirousek Christopher Kaiser Camryn Catalde Georgia Sapounas Tony Ronca Alicia Donley Angelina Klopp Kevin Cedar Andrew Gribble Ryan Marks Sabrina Grivas Nick Deludos Andrew Gaitan
