Google Team Beach Picnic with Buffet and Games at Tower 28
May 2022 · 24 guests · Lifeguard Tower 28 (Ocean Park, Santa Monica)
A Google team of about 24 joined us at Lifeguard Tower 28 in May 2022 for a picnic on the sand. The group brought their own food, so we set up a buffet table and supplied 24 extra plates so there was plenty of tableware for the spread.
Drinks got two dedicated igloo coolers, one packed with ice for waters and one for the team's own beverages. For games, we brought cornhole, badminton and Spikeball, and the booking included an extra hour so the group could stay longer.
Tower 28 is in Santa Monica's Ocean Park area, south of the pier, with a parking lot next to the beach. It's a straightforward format that works well for a relaxed team outing: food on the buffet, drinks on ice, and games a few steps from the tables.
