Team SUDS Outfits Activity Room at North Suburban YMCA

October 15, 2018 - Serving the community for 50 years can take a toll on interior appointments, and a conference room at the North Suburban YMCA was particularly in need of a refresh.

Located just off the main entrance, the conference room is one of the most utilized areas of the facility. In addition to providing a place for staff to meet, it’s host to a wide variety of community activities. Unfortunately, the conference room was full of tired, decades-old furniture that looked dated and was falling apart.

As part of continuing efforts to give back, the Stand Up Desk Store Team donated a selection of standing desks, standing desk chairs, standing desk floor mats, and other accessories. To provide maximum flexibility, the team chose six 60-inch, crank operated adjustable height standing desks as the centerpiece to the room. This is because the desks can be used individually or pushed together to create a large standing or sitting height conference table.

According to Stand Up Desk Store content writer Brett Ratner, choosing the furniture was the easy part. All those desks and chairs needed to be unboxed and assembled.

"I think the grand total was six desks, 16 chairs, and two side tables," Ratner said. "To get all that done in one morning, we basically turned the entire marketing department into a construction crew."

That crew also included E-commerce Assistant Becky Behof, Product Manager David Ellis, and E-commerce Coordinator Jessica Stam. Joining forces, the group was able to transform the room in time for a late lunch.

   

In addition to providing a great service to the community, the donation offered an opportunity to really experience Stand Up 

Desk Store products from the perspective of the consumer.  "You learn a lot about a chair when you put 10 of them together in rapid succession," Ratner explained. "You can see, from the eyes of a consumer, how easy the instructions are to follow, how well it's packed, if it's packed with the correct number of nuts and bolts, as well as the overall quality. From the desks to the chairs to the side tables, it was quite evident how hard our product team works to deliver quality. And fortunately, that quality can be enjoyed by the staff and members of this YMCA for years to come."
