3 Perks of Planning the Perfect Company Picnic

Summertime picnics are the quintessential corporate gathering. While the weather is warm and the sun is shining, why not get out of the office and enjoy some fresh air? Here are just a few perks to throwing a company picnic!

Branching Out

Hosting a company picnic is a great way to celebrate your employees’ hard work in a laid-back setting that everyone can enjoy. You have the opportunity to recognize milestones and achievements in a relaxed environment where everyone can truly sit back and appreciate their work relationships and accomplishments.

A company picnic is also the perfect setting for team building exercises and other activities. Creating strong workplace relationships is important, but it’s not always easy to make friends in the high stress environment of an office. A company picnic is a great opportunity to leave the cubicles behind for a day, and dedicate some time to forming a tighter workplace community.

Engaging Spaces

It’s important to think about what kind of space would be best for your outdoor gathering. If the whole family is invited, why not opt for a venue that’s fun for all ages, like a community park or pool? If your guest list is employees-only, a tranquil environment with space to spread out and relax might be more suitable.

The Garden has a variety of outdoor venues. From the Bell Children’s Garden, loaded with fun and learning for kids of all ages, to the Cowles Terrace, a laid-back patio area, you’re sure to find a space that fits your needs.

Show Your Commitment

While company-wide events can seem like an unnecessary investment, your generosity doesn’t go unnoticed. Planning a fun gathering is a great way to show that you care for your employees, and are willing to give back. Plus, renting out a venue shows that you’re committed to supporting local businesses.

By choosing the Garden for your company picnic, your rental fees directly support and maintain our spaces as well as help offer free educational, recreational, and cultural programming for our Northeast Wisconsin community and beyond. Green Bay Botanical Garden is the perfect place for your company to come enjoy the outdoors while being recognized for all the dedication and effort they put into their jobs.
