16 May Ignite Social Media’s 2012 Mystery Trip to New Orleans, Louisiana
One of the amazing perks of working at Ignite Social Media is our annual Mystery Trip. Each year our company, along with Brogan & Partners, closes down for a long weekend to unwind and bond as a team on a group vacation. A few months before we depart, the company gets a series of clues as to where we are going and what to pack, but no one truly knows the location until they open their travel packet at the airport. This year, 92 of us traveled to New Orleans, Louisiana for great food, music and even a swamp tour! Below are some of our favorite photos from the trip:
At 4AM, both the Michigan and North Carolina offices gathered at their local airports for the big destination reveal.

Admiring St. Louis Cathedral in Jackson Square while sightseeing around the French Quarter.
Open 24 hours a day, Cafe Du Monde beignets proved to be a popular snack both day and night!

A big THANK YOU to all of our clients who make it possible and for allowing us to officially shut down for one day each year. Stay tuned for the 2013 Mystery Trip… did I mention we are hiring?
Let us know where you think we should go next!
