Fun Day must-haves
May 5, 2014 : General Team Building
Can you believe that Easter has been and gone? Nope, me neither, however this does mean that it’s time to get planning your 2014 Fun Day. Whether it’s for employees only, or family and friends there are several fun day essentials that we would highly recommend:
1. Your Compere – a professionally hosted event will keep all the guests informed and entertained throughout the day
2. Music – come rain or shine, good tunes will keep the atmosphere energetic and maintain an up tempo mood.
3. ‘Have a go’ activities – choose a variety of activities which have a high throughput of guests to ensure nobody is kept waiting too long!
4. BBQ – normally the favourite fodder of choice; smells great and can cater for all dietary requirements.
5. Something special – consider putting in something unexpected for your guests, be it complimentary ice-cream, gorillas in the mist or a show-stopping piece of entertainment for the main stage! All budget dependent, of course.
Notable Fun Day client testimonials from recent years include the following:
Drover’s
“Just a quick note to say how fantastic Rob & John did on Sunday – they were kept super busy for the whole day by loads of kids in the hot weather too and just cracked on and kept their enthusiasm up right through. Both were really professional, smiley, helpful and more than happy to do whatever needed done. Huge thanks again for helping us out with this one, the day couldn’t have gone better and will definitely be holding it again next year.”
