“The crew should be proud of their hard work and dedication to advance to the top 10 percent of all Sonic’s in the nation,” said Nelson Taylor, vice president of operations services for Sonic. “Dr Pepper Sonic Games is a unique and fun experience that encourages employees to deliver outstanding customer service. It also provides opportunities to learn about goal setting, responsibility and teamwork.”

The contest gives employees a chance to prove which drive-in is the best with challenging team and individual competitions. The nine-month, Olympic-style competition tests the knowledge of crew members in the categories of Carhop (food delivery), Fountain (drink preparation), Switchboard (service delivery), Dresser, Grill and Swamp (food preparation).

The Games began in January with more than 2,600 enrolled drive-ins. The final 12 teams will receive an all-expense-paid VIP trip to the National Finals in Las Vegas, where they will compete to be named the nation’s best drive-in. Sonic’s top executives will honor the winners at Sonic’s National Convention in Las Vegas in front of more than 3,000 franchisees, managers and employees.
