In August 2022, Freebook Global Technologies hosted a thrilling event, that was slightly different to what we’re used to. The evening was full of aqua games, with drinks and dinner, plus perfectly clear skies and sunshine to go along with it.
The New Forest Water Park is the UK’s first and largest outdoor floating inflatable sports aqua park. Set in the heart of the New Forest, the location couldn’t be beaten on such a sunny day. Unfortunately, all the tranquillity stopped when the Freebook Global Technologies team arrived. Screams and laughter filled the area, especially when everyone took their turns being launched in the air by their colleagues jumping on the inflatable ‘blob’. The fun and games were followed up with dinner and drinks at a local pub, the Alice Lisle.
It was great to see team members travel from the Menlo Park California office to join in on the fun. These team socials are a great way to meet new colleagues who work across our other offices or remotely, and get to know the people that you work with but don’t see in-person on a regular basis.
Want to know what our team thought?
“We had great weather for it, as it was during those weeks of the heat waves. Everyone was falling into the water and had to be helped back onto the inflatables by their teammates, which was very entertaining. The BLOB was my favourite because I went mega high.”
“New Forest Water Park is amazing. It's the only place in the area where you can see your colleagues being launched into space just using an airbag. What can I say, it was fun and I'm happy to come back any time.”
“10 out of 10, would recommend - I had an amazing time. It reminds you that you are no longer a fit, healthy teenager, but actually a man in his early 30s who is quite vulnerable to injury.”
The escapades don’t stop there. Freebook Global Technologies is always happy to put on events for its hard-working team. Our Christmas party is coming up and will be held at an exceptional venue in Palm Beach Florida.
