Tammy and Kippers Skip-Day Ziplining With The Adventure Center of Asheville

Why work when you can play? Tammy and Kipper want to get you the day off you deserve. With each of their skip day adventurers, listeners register for a chance to join in on some midweek fun.

What’s the best part? The awkward conversations Tammy and Kipper get to have with their winners’ bosses while they beg them to let their employees off for a day of fun!  Awkwardness aside, the good news is that the bosses that say yes to letting their employees off are rewarded with a massage from Massage Envy.

This skip-day Tammy and Kipper had the pleasure of taking four Mix 965 listeners  and their guests for a day of ziplining at The Adventure Center of Asheville. 

Tremendous thanks to all who came out and played, the bosses that let them play, and the staff of The Adventure Center of Asheville!
