Every summer we had an event called the "Beer Relays" for employees, at the Jesuit High School track in Beaverton, Oregon.

The event included, of course, beer, and relays, races among the Nike departments. Also included custom T-shirts, tricycles and propeller beanies.

Most important, I met my wife there in 1980; we're about to celebrate our 37th anniversary.
