Let’s Have a Picnic!

With the recent economic downturn, many corporations scrapped the ever-popular company picnic. However, experts advise against canceling the party and instead suggest bringing the company picnic back.

A company picnic can be a great morale booster. It sends a strong message that upper management care about the employees. Also, a picnic or outing can help define the corporate culture of an organization. Playing games and breaking bread together provides opportunities for employees to bond.

One of the first considerations when planning a company picnic is the location. You want to have plenty of space for games and entertainment for all ages. Also, you need a location that can still be used if the weather does not cooperate. For example, with 108 acres, Castleton Farms has lots of room for employees to roam and hang out with one another. Also, in case of rain, the tented pavilion is available and can comfortably seat 300 guests.

Another consideration when planning the picnic is the entertainment factor. Assuming that family members are invited, games and activities for all ages are necessary. Castleton Farms provides access to our wonderful and experienced vendors, like Ogle Entertainment, All Occasions Party Rental and Image Cinema.

Ogle Entertainment can provide a disc jockey who can set the tone of the event and keep the party moving. All Occasion Party Rental has inflatables and anything else you need for a festival atmosphere. And, Image Cinema has the best photo booth service around, complete with props and prints. What a fun and original crowd pleaser.

Castleton Farm’s all-inclusive catering vendors can prepare a menu that’s sure to please the pickiest guests. Anything from boxed lunches to a seated meal, our award-winning caterers can help you come up with the perfect menu that captures the spirit of the event.
