Case Study LLOG Family Day

As a family-owned business since its inception, LLOG has always understood the importance of family. One way that LLOG shows appreciation to its employees and their families is by hosting a day to celebrate family. LLOG has hosted an annual Family Day for several years and management believes the day improves employee engagement and morale. Family Day allows employees from different departments to interact in ways they ordinarily wouldn’t in an office setting. Family Day is a celebration where all employees and their families can come together outside of the office to enjoy great food and music, pedal boats, miniature golf, games for children, facepainting, prize raffles, and fellowship. 

Starting in April 2023, the company hosted its annual LLOG Family Day at LynHaven park, an 18- acre private park and retreat that hosts special events, picnics, and parties. Aside from the picturesque setting of oak trees and ponds, there are other reasons that make LynHaven park so special. LynHaven is owned and operated by the New Orleans Mission and is home to the women’s 1-year discipleship/ recovery program. They are dedicated to the rescue, recovery and re-engagement of people facing homelessness, addiction, human trafficking, abuse, and mental illness.
