AZ Company Picnics

Company picnics can be a tough thing to plan.  When you are planning a company picnic you need to be sure that you take many different things into consideration.  Below is a list of items you will need to tend to when planning a company picnic in Arizona.

 

1.  Venue:  Where will you have your company picnic?  There are many parks around the state of Arizona that could be appropriate for a company picnic.  All you will need to do to host a company picnic at an Arizona area park is call the parks and recreation department for the area and see what they require.  Many times the parks and recreation department will require a permit for having food, alcohol, music, or inflatables.  You could also have your company picnic in an indoor venue such as a club, hall, or other similar facility.  Just remember that these venues will almost always be more expensive than an outdoor park facility, but it may be just what your company picnic needs, especially if it is scorching hot outside in the Arizona heat.

 

2.  Date:  This seems like something so obvious, but you should pick a date when the weather is pleasant.  It may also be best to choose a date that is during your business’s slow season, if that exists.  It may not be best to plan a company picnic during a holiday weekend, as attendance to your picnic could be low on these weekends (Labor Day, Memorial Day, President’s Day, etc.)

 

3.  Entertainment:  A lot of times people don’t enjoy entertainers very much like magicians, singers, or clowns.  Stick with something that is universally enjoyed.  Some examples of universal fun are things like tug-of-war, lawn bowling, ladder golf, and sack races.  You can simply hook up an iPod to a PA system in order to pump live music through the event.  This will make a big difference to the atmosphere of the company picnic and is very low cost.

 

4.  Fun for Kids:  Rent some inflatables for the kids.  This is the best way to entertain the kids at a company picnic.  Kids will be absolutely delighted with this choice by the company picnic organizers.  The inflatables will allow the kids to stay active and play with all the other kids at the picnic.  You can rents slides, bounce houses, or inflatable party games for your picnic.  The sky is the limit with your choices for inflatables.
