Gravitate HR Go Ape!

Monday, October 13th, 2008

Following Sarah and Jennifer’s sunny days out with clients, we decided we should have an away day. Heather recommended Go Ape - so we made all the arrangements and headed off to Aberfoyle, on Friday 10th October. Even the rain and mist did not dampen our spirits and as the mini made it’s way north and west - the rain got heavier and the anticipation grew.

Now that we are back safely I can tell you that it was fantastic. It is very exhilarating and is a great team building event. We got very very wet as you can see from the photos!

This is Jennifer arriving on the zip wire!

The way home is back across the zip wire over the trees, waterfall, landing on a big pile of wood chip ………

Jennifer looks happy!
