Who’s Ready for Some Chili?

Posted on January 27, 2020 | Leave a comment

Our Fort Worth office held their inaugural Chili Cook-Off last Friday, with nearly 20 entries for this year’s contest! There was a little bit of everything, including mild chili, spicy chili, beef chili, pork chili, and everything in between.

Congratulations to this year’s Chili Champ, Justin Rose, and his venison chili! They also crowned a Chili Chump, Marnie Quedensley, whose entry didn’t quite finish at the top of the voting.

Thank you to everyone who participated, and we can’t wait to have even more entries next year!

Happy New Year!

Posted on January 9, 2020 | Leave a comment

With the New Year comes new goals and sometimes sticking to those goals takes some extra motivation. If being more active is part of your plan for this year, then we have an event for you!

The Form Follows Fitness 5K is coming back to Klyde Warren Park on Saturday, February 15th, and we want you and your family to join Team Alpha Testing! This annual 5K takes you through Uptown and the Dallas Design District, so you get to see some award winning architecture and a few Alpha projects, too!

Alpha is once again covering the entry fees for our employees and their families. For more information, including an entry code for your FREE registration, contact Karen Rodriguez at krodriguez@alphatesting.com.

Turkey Trot Time!

Posted on November 15, 2019 | Leave a comment

We love almost everything about Thanksgiving, especially the food! One thing we don’t love is the guilt that sometimes goes with overindulging during those Thanksgiving feasts. So why not start your Thanksgiving Day with a run or walk, and burn some calories before you eat that second piece of pumpkin pie? Here are some of the races in our areas of the state!

At Alpha, we think you’re never too old to dress up and have some fun for Halloween. Our offices held pumpkin decorating and costume contests, and enjoyed some “Alpha-ween” treats yesterday.

Congratulations to our contest winners – Olivia Drew (San Antonio) for her Pinocchio pumpkin and Andy Vargas (Fort Worth) for his WWE Smackdown costume!

Check out some photos below, and let us know which are your favorites!
