Happy Holidays from the WeMB team! ❄ Here are a few highlights from our wonderful staff excursion earlier this month to The Leaf, where we enjoyed an incredible lunch at Gather, followed by a private tour of the stunning biomes to celebrate the holidays. It was a perfect way to connect with one another and appreciate the beauty of nature together—and escape the snow! In the spirit of the season, we also came together to wrap gifts and pack food for our Christmas Cheer Board family, which we delivered this week. Wishing you all a joyful holiday season and looking forward to seeing you in 2025! 🎄✨
