Some of the NYC-area Datonics team gathered to celebrate the end of summer for our annual outing to the US Open on Thursday, 9/2. We were lucky to have beautiful weather on the day, which followed one of the worst storms to hit New York City and the tristate area. We were all thankful to have made it through the storm, for the beautiful sunshine and mild temperature, and for each other’s company.
The USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadows Corona Park was alive with music and tons of great food. Our team was able to choose between great eats and drinks in the Food Village such as: Los Tacos No.1, Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Shop, Curry Kitchen, Fish Shack, Franks & Fries, Fuku, Grey Goose Bar, Glatt Kosher, Korilla BBQ, San Matteo, Poke Yachty, Prime Burger and many more.
The tennis matches were fierce. We watched some of the best players in the world, including an electric match between Gael Monfils and Steve Johnson. The score was extremely close, with games going back and forth between the two players. French player, Monfils gave the crowd quite a performance with a celebratory dance, winning the support over USA Steve Johnson and ultimately winning and moving onto the next round.
It was a great day of in-person celebration and team building camaraderie.
We look forward to our next event!
