We decided White Water Rafting was the activity to do, because why wouldn’t you want to send all your staff members into an Olympic course with grade 4 rapids, that have never attempted an activity like this before, what could possibly go wrong?
We got suited and booted in our wetsuits, life jackets and helmets, and all regrouped to take part in the safety assessment in which included watching each team member jump into the water and hugely struggle to get back out against the rapids, which was comical!
After we had all somehow passed our safety assessment and with ou oars at the ready it was time to shine and take on the immense rapids… After being slapped by multiple waves we were all starting to get the hang of it. All we needed to do was listen to instructions (which we are all great at) and paddle hard! Sounds simple, until your hit with the biggest rapid in all the course and your boat capsizes! Our boat was hit so hard by the rapid it flipped us quicker than we could move to the other side to try and stop it, throwing all 6 of us into the icy water.
Team building is a huge part of our culture here at Vouch, not only does it reward all the hard work that goes in on a daily basis, the late nights and early mornings, its a chance to get us all together to socialise outside of the working environment encouraging that team spirit as always and most importantly to have fun together![/xen_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
