On 4th September 2016 children of the employees of OMEGA Pilzno were guests in their parents’ workplace in the head office of OMEGA Pilzno Group. The event „Meet your parents’ professions” was organised as a part of OMEGA Kids Academy.

The adventure started with the meeting with Tiger OMEGUS and exploration of buildings and offices where their parents work. As all rooms were opened, children could see the buildings of: the Shipping Department, the garage – authorized Volvo service, the drivers’ service and the Board. Parents worked as guides who proudly presented thier workplaces equipped with all necessary appliances.

The 3^rd edition of the Podkarpacki Ultramarathon is over! 4 routes, nearly 500 participants and one common goal: to cross the finish line. OMEGA Pilzno was a co-organizer of this one of the most important sport events in the region.

We have supported the organization of the Podkarpacki Ultramarathon for 3 years. Every year one of the attractions during the event is OMEGA Pilzno town — a tent full of games prepared especially for children who support their relatives during the run. Tiger Omegus was children’s playmate.

While the adult competitors were covering a distance, the children were enjoying their time exploring the world of Omega Pilzno. With the help of Tiger Omegus and colorful books, they discovered the secrets of a driver’s job and learned the fundamentals of road safety. We also organized contests. Each child was awarded for painting a picture or completing a task described in the book. The prizes were company safety gadgets, such as safety reflectors useful when riding a bike or walking with parents. All children received balloons with a picture of Tiger Omegus on them.
