Eventful Times

I have been a member of Dial One Wolfedale Electric’s Social Committee since my first year of employment with the company in 1998. I have enjoyed everything that we as a committee have done throughout the years. The members of the social committee are responsible to plan annual events and secure venues that will engage the employees of Wolfedale Electric. With a company of 100 to 150 employees and their families at varying times throughout the year choosing and planning successful and safe events can be a huge task made easier by the formation of our Social Committee. Requesting feedback and suggestions from our field and office staff about prior events and new events helps to ensure we are considering everyone, of all ages finding events/activities that will be enjoyed by all.

Approaching the end of 2011, we now look back at our events for the year:

A successful Christmas party; a wonderful venue and new activity (Picture Booth) was the ultimate party maker. Wolfedale employees engaged in laughter and fun while dressing up and posing for the Picture Machine. Let’s not forget about the reindeer in the lobby of the hall which received many kisses from the employees, some more than once.
In the summer of 2011 we held our annual Picnic at Canada’s Wonderland; a popular venue two years in a row. Once again this popular venue proved to be a huge success for the employees of Wolfedale Electric and their family members of all ages. Stomach twisting rolling hills and thrilling climbs of coaster rides left expressions of anticipation and excitement on the faces of all. The face painting and washable tattoos were a huge success when everyone gathered to enjoy a tasty and social lunch.

Christmas Party 2010

With 2011 events having come to an end we now look forward to planning/choosing our venues, for 2012. As part of the committees planning skills, we pick and choose through a variety of venues for annual picnics, Christmas parties and possible in between events and activities. Although time consuming visiting a variety of venues can be very interesting viewing décor, sometimes trying menu items and of course choosing from a variety of forms of entertainment; Handwriting analysis, Shoe
readings as well as some things we have done in the past; Picture Booth, Dress Up DJ’s, and more.

As with anything we do there are a number of tasks to complete; working with others, discussing ideas, planning, scheduling, reviewing and implementation are all part of any success!
