Team Bonding Done Right: Why Companies Are Heading to the River
There’s something special that happens when a team gets out of the office and onto the river. The pace slows down. The conversations get more real. Laughter comes easy, and memories are made that no one forgets about by Monday.
That’s exactly what one local company experienced when they brought their General and Assistant Managers to Trading Post Outfitters for a summer staff appreciation outing full of paddling, pizza, and pure sunshine.
“Every year we treat our General and Assistant Managers to a summer outing to show our appreciation for all their hard work throughout the year. This year we decided on kayaking. The Trading Post did not disappoint. Our trip was AMAZING. They catered pizza too. It was such an awesome day. The staff were so friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this place. They are great!!!”
