A Brookfield business brought Rio to Southeast Wisconsin.
 
International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans puts employee wellness first, so when Anne Killian, a communications staff member, came up with the idea for Office Olympics, the office jumped right in.
They turned traditional Olympic events into office driven athletic events. They did 'Sharperie,' archery with sharpies, 'Wasketball,' wastebasket basketball using recycled paper, shot put with bocce balls, a symbol of the office's team and rowing with rolling office chairs.
 
The company says it's the perfect combination of athletic and social wellness.
