Phoenix Favorites: POA’s Top Picks for Weekend Activities in the Desert

August 28, 2018

With our recent acquisition of Trans-West Network Solutions, our Phoenix branch has doubled in size. This quarter, we’re focusing in on our Southwest region and sharing some of our favorite activities in and around Phoenix, AZ.

The Great Outdoors

Located near the Sonoran Desert, Phoenix presents several heart-pumping activities for outdoor enthusiasts. From hikes to nature parks, it’s easy to get out of the city on weekends. Here are a few popular and easily-accessible attractions in Phoenix we enjoy:

Camelback Mountain

The 1,200 ft. summit at this popular hiking spot offers panoramic city and mountain views. We especially enjoy an early morning hike to beat the heat and crowds.

Papago Park

An oasis near downtown Phoenix, this park offers scenic trails and the well-known Hole-in-the-Rock formation and viewpoint.

Desert Botanical Garden

Desert hiking not your thing? Many of our employees also enjoy leisurely strolls through Phoenix’s botanical garden, full of varying cactus and desert flower varieties.

Arizona Sports Sponsorships

One of the pillars of POA culture, both in Arizona and across the West Coast, is our pro athletics sponsorships. Here in Phoenix, we’re proud to sponsor the Phoenix Suns NBA team and the Arizona Coyotes of the NHL.

Back in 2016, we also had the honor of opening the Phoenix Suns Courtside Club, sponsored by yours truly! These sponsorships not only give us an outlet to be around our favorite teams, but they also offer more exposure for us so that we can solve more problems for our local offices.

Events by POA

Every summer, we host an annual golf tournament that welcomes customers down to Phoenix to mingle with our teams. We look forward to this event each year as a chance to get to know those we work with and celebrate our successes together.

Our business goal is to solve more workflow problems for our customers, but our mission is to be an active presence in each community in which we’re located. As our Southwest branches grow, so will our need for ambitious, driven employees.
