Hundreds of employees from every company at the Tech Park, which are termed Tech Cats, connected with each other to celebrate with games, prizes and a tailgate style lunch on the lawn. The local high school, Cienega, brought their 100+ marching band to the celebration. The campus was full of Wildcat pride and spirit.
