Press Glass at Częstochowa Run: 10th Anniversary of the Campaign

Seventy participants with Press Glass logo on their T-shirts from various branches in Poland, as well as colleagues from our plants in Croatia and Lithuania shown up on the starting line. As part of the running park prepared by the organizers of the run, Press Glass promotional booth was set up under the supervision of the HR department.

Those who did not take part in the run joined the fan zone, supporting our runners. It was a unique event, full of sporting rivalry and team spirit, which integrated Press Glass employees wonderfully.

After the run, at a gala event, the campaign organisers officially summarised all the sporting events that took place as part of the Sport and Support campaign between 2015 and 2024.

Press Glass employees ran more than 70,000 km for 10 years, which is like circling the globe almost two times. We visited more than 700 cities and towns in Poland and Europe, and our campaign participants took part in individual starts 2311 times.

The gala was full of emotions and memories and an important part of it was the presentation of prizes to the most committed participants of the action in individual runs in two categories: number of kilometres covered and number of starts.

An additional category during the award ceremony was the TOP 5 of the past 10 years, and it is interesting to note that the winner of this category has run a total of 5917 km under the banner of the campaign for 10 years.

The best sportsman of the year 2023 was also honoured – in this poll, it was the participants themselves who had the opportunity to select their favourite.

After the official part of the gala, Mr. Tomasz Wozowicz spoke and congratulated all the participants on their great results and thanked them for their commitment and representing the company at the Sport and Support events – “I am glad that there are so many people in the company who practice sport. As you know, it requires self-discipline, dedication, determination and great motivation. That is why, by employing people like you, I am convinced that Press Glass will be able to keep growing”.

We are delighted that we were able to celebrate 10 years of Sport and Support in such large numbers. We sincerely hope that the number of participants will continue to increase each year. Thanks to this initiative, we can spend time actively, integrate, get to know each other, break our own records – but most importantly we can help others.   

See you at the next runs!
