Event Fun Ideas to Mix Work and Play…

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy". It is an old saying in which not only "Jack" is affected but it can actually lower the activeness of your team and also disturb its potential and confidence. The eagerness to carry out certain task and the right attitude towards it, should be blended, and if there is only "work" and no "play" among your staff members, it will make everything dull and tedious for you. There are a few options. However, they could be hard for everyone to carry out.

Here are five event fun ideas that could change things around and create a strong bond between you and your co-workers…

1. Secret Agent Adventure

During these corporate and exclusive events, you can roam around the city pretending to be some famous personality or a favorite actor. Your team will be given instructions manual showing the maps, tickets and providing you with a digital camera. The smaller groups of people will roam around the city, talking and making it all one memorable event.

2. Drumming workshops

They have gained quite a lot of popularity in the past. These workshops include a lot of people who get the opportunity to participate in them, building up successful teams. It involves teamwork that is very healthy for a group of people working together. It requires cooperation for transportation and setting up of the entire experience also, done with the aid of a set of sound instruments.

3. Go Karting

Go karting involves a lot of fun and drivers tend to enjoy it due to its speed; very experienced people are blown away due to their body weights, involving a lot of thrill to the entire event. You can always make your selections as to what type of karts you need to make it more thrilling and adventurous. There are many of these go karting zones that involve food services as well as some healthy quizzes and competitions. You can warn your team not to make sexist jokes about two different genders driving the cars, or at least you can just keep it level.

4. Team cooking events

These events aren't only about lectures related to cooking; these activities also involve some teamwork while cooking food. This particular event isn't only about just marketing or promotions; it is also about getting together and requires a great deal of working together as teams. It is not based on the hierarchies; there is no head or teacher and no disciple or student. It does not involve too much professionalism or expertise; you can cook even if it rains outside. And the best part of this event is that you get to eat whatever have cooked.

5. Circus Skills Workshops

If the group of people you are with, have an adventurous spirit, it is the best idea to participate in a circus skill event to make it memorable for years. These events are a bit similar to "Secret Agent Adventures"; they cost $100 per head. But these are a little more than "go karting" events. People who get scared of these adventures can also enjoy the event as they have a few activities too. Juggling, Hula hoops, and Diablo sticks are best for these people who are not very eager and are frightened to participate in forming a human pyramid.

The WORKSHOP : Sydney, Australia

As a child, I was fascinated with Australia...so fascinated, it bordered on obsession. As a homeschooler, my mother decided to channel my obsession interest and create a curriculum around all things Australia. Math was converting feet into meters, science was a study of koalas and kangaroos, and english focused on the syntax of letter writing (she found me a pen pal in Sydney). I wrote a report on the Sydney Opera House and promised I'd visit one day. At the time, we didn't own a car, my father caught the bus to work, our refrigerator was empty, and we shopped at thrift stores. Instead of being realistic, my mom nodded and agreed. Yes, my love, you'll visit Sydney one day. Decades later, I can't walk through Sydney and not think of that semester of homeschool. I can't help but think that life is sweeter than I could've imagined back then. Sydney has been good to me, both in childhood and present day. Two weeks ago, I hosted photography workshops in Australia and it was an epic adventure I'll never forget. I met 20 amazing photographers and together we focused on how to build a branded photography business, effective marketing, and focused on how to flow pose with clients to reflect our brand.

Many thanks to the Intercontinental Hotel in Double Bay for hosting us...it was beyond perfect and the entire staff made us feel like we were at home.

We began the wedding photo shoot around the property of the Intercontinental, paying particular notice to natural reflectors and how to create soft light on really bright days...

I have to take a minute to thank our AMAZING sponsors who came on board to ensure theWORKSHOP was perfect...I'm completely blown away by their support! Many thanks to: White House Custom Colour - for awesome prints, press printed cards and canvas prints. Replichrome by Totally Rad - for creating the best Lightroom presets...ever. Pixieset - for hosting my online galleries and providing a gorgeous + user friendly interface. Blogstomp - for making image watermarking incredibly easy and my work identifiable when shared. Albumesque - for designing gorgeous wedding albums for me...Amy's the best! Photographer's Edit - for being an amazing outsourcing partner during these past crazy weeks and editing the photos just the way I like them.

As part of theWORKSHOP, I challenged photographers to be confident in their skills when it comes to shooting in the worst light. Our shoot was during the brightest, hottest, and sweatiest part of the day. Photographing at high noon is usually avoided at all costs, but I walked through techniques and approaches to use and make photos to be proud of.

Shooting in Double Bay--just 10 minutes from Sydney's CBD--was a dream...

A highlight of the day was working with Jordan and Jordan (yes, they share the same name and they're a real couple), who flawlessly worked multiple cameras at once and looked downright beautiful...

Jordan, you are nothing short of perfection...

I was smitten with Jordan's blue suit...fashionable and classic at the same time!

We ended the wedding photo shoot near the hotel...the space was tiny and actually served as a parking lot, but we learned how to take the little we have and make the most of the space!

Adding a geronimo balloon always makes things more fun!

This is my second most favorite photo of the day...

....and this is my favorite photo of the day! Meeting this group of photographers made me a better person. I was embraced like an Aussie and treated like a friend...they were gracious, kind, and full of passion. Beyond all else, I know their talent will grow not just by way of their photo skills, but by their good hearts. I'm honored to call them peers.

Many, many thanks to the AMAZING team who brought this day to life...
