BEYOND WORK

CrossRoad Engineers is not a family run company; it's a company that operates with a family atmosphere. The culture we have created provides an opportunity for people to work together and have fun together.

Christmas Party

Each year we celebrate the Christmas season by spending an evening together as a family, kids and all, in a wide variety of locations.

indianapolis Indians Game

Each summer employees, clients, and their families attend an Indians Game together. Since half of the staff works in the field this is a great way to "catch up" with each other during the busy summer season and watch America's favorite past time.

Golf Trip

The golf-lovers in the bunch head south to warmer weather for a few days of PGA-like action in the spring. The landscape is serene; the deer are plentiful; and, the camaraderie is terrific. Though we are eternally optimistic in our skills, the weather is usually the highlight of the trip... the golf scores not so much!

camping trip

We enjoy an annual late summer trip to a local state park.
Hiking, canoeing, and late night campfires are to be expected.
