Event Staffing Lets Your Employees Relax And Enjoy Your Company Picnic

If your company is planning a corporate picnic and family fun day, you'll probably need help with event staffing. You probably don't want your employees to have to work at the picnic, so bringing in outside help from a staffing agency is a good idea. Here's how they can help with your event.

Make And Serve Food

You might have food stands, box lunches, or sit-down meals at your picnic, and event staff can handle them all. Your event may have an individual assigned to oversee and coordinate everything so they can bring in cooks and wait-staff to make sure everyone has all the food and drinks they want at your event whether they pass out lunches, keep bowls of family-style food filled, or take individual orders and deliver plates to a table.

The service may even go over your menu and help you select the right foods for your picnic and order all the supplies you need so you don't have to worry about how to feed all your employees and their families.

Set Up And Tear Down The Picnic Area

You'll need a lot of picnic tables, a cooking area, tents, chairs, and other accessories to help your employees be comfortable. Event staff can set everything up before your employees arrive and then clean up and tear everything down when your picnic is over.

Organize Entertainment

You'll probably want to organize games for kids and provide entertainment for adults. Event staff can help with activities for all ages, and the supervisor of your event may even help arrange entertainment for adults with local bands or singers with enough advanced notice.

It's always a good idea to give the staffing agency plenty of notice when you need their help. It's often possible to get help on short notice, but when you're planning a big party for families, the more notice you provide, the better the supervisor can help your party be a fun success.

Direct Parking And Manage The Guests

If you're planning a large crowd, you may need the event staff to maximize parking spaces by directing cars where to park and help people find parking spaces. The staff can also direct people where to go, be available to answer questions about restrooms and where to get drinks, and help solve other problems that may arise.

By having an outside company manage and staff your event, your employees take on the role of guests that are pampered so they can relax and have fun rather than be occupied with cooking or cleaning during the picnic.
