The summer period is usually a time when business slows down, offices become more relaxed, deadlines lose some of their urgency, and the holiday season tends to stretch them out even further. This is the typical summer office reality in most workplaces \u2014 but it’s not a rule that applies everywhere. Gda\u0144sk’s Olivia Centre sums up the summer and proves that this season, the largest business center in Poland was anything but short on initiatives.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Residents enjoy special privileges<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Summer has inevitably come to an end, and the close of the season offers a good opportunity for a summary \u2014 especially since Olivia Centre has plenty to be proud of. The diversity, intensity, and sheer number of events is impressive.<\/strong> For years, Olivia has been running a range of projects designed to bring the community together<\/strong>. In doing so, it aims to create added value for its residents and their employees. These efforts are centered around numerous passion development clubs, covering areas as varied and unexpected as a sailing club and a choir, a photography club and a football league, historical walks through Gda\u0144sk’s districts, and conversations between attorney Bogus\u0142aw Wieczorek and experts in the “Rozmowy O!” talks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This season was rich in events \u2014 not only on the Olivia premises, but also across many districts of Gda\u0144sk and on the waters of the Gulf of Gda\u0144sk. For the second year in a row, employees of Residents had the chance to train in beach volleyball on full-size courts<\/strong> right in the heart of Olivia. As many as 24 teams took part in the summer tournament.<\/strong> Daily training sessions were made easier thanks to an online court booking system, which employees greatly appreciate. One of the main challenges with seaside courts is precisely the need to wait for availability.<\/p>\n

One of the most exciting events of the season was the training camp of the National Deaf Beach Volleyball Team, both men’s and women’s squads, who trained at Olivia ahead of the season’s biggest event \u2014 the Deaf European Championships.<\/strong> It turned out that the Olivia courts brought them luck, as in July, Team Poland won two medals: gold, claimed by the men’s team, and bronze, won by the women’s team. This marked the first time in the history of Polish deaf beach volleyball that Poland’s representatives won two medals at a European Championship.<\/p>\n

This season’s sporting events also included a day of Hyrox-style workouts led by B\u0142a\u017cej Weso\u0142owski, as well as Active Day,<\/strong> during which participants had access to numerous activities throughout the day. At 7 a.m., they set off to paddle on SUP boards<\/strong>, while another group practiced yoga on Olivia’s patio at 8 a.m.,<\/strong> and the rest of the day was packed with attractions such as a Ninja-style workout,<\/strong> a body composition analysis on a professional scale under the supervision of CityFit trainers, an Air Bike workout, and group dance sessions with choreography lessons. That day also featured the season wrap-up of the Olivia Centre football league<\/strong>, with the day’s finale taking place on the waters of the bay during an evening sailing session<\/strong> at sunset with the organizers of Olivia Yacht Club.<\/p>\n
