When we were kids, our parents and teachers taught us this maxim, “The early bird gets the worm.” Over the years, we learned they were right. Going to your favorite bakery early can get you a fresh, hot-from-the-oven treat. Being first in the ticket line helps you snag premium seats. Starting a term paper early usually results in fewer all-nighters and a better grade.
#eventplanning is no exception, particularly for summer events when calendars fill up fast with vacations and other activities. Planning your company's summer event as early as possible gives you the best chance to:
- Develop solid goals and objectives for leadership buy-in. What do you want your event to achieve? #teambuilding? Increase morale? Reward your team for a job well done? A well-thought-out plan with measurable outcomes will aid in leadership approving your event – and our team at Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom can help build the perfect event to meet those goals.
- Book the date you want. Summer event venues can book quickly. Reserving your date early gives you the best advantage to secure sought-after summer weekends and the best mealtimes.
- Achieve high participation. Announcing an event months in advance allows attendees to save the date and prioritize your event over other obligations. It also gives you ample time to promote your event.
- Develop special touches for an event they’ll be talking about for years to come. At Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom, our event planners are industry veterans, and we know what delights guests. Team up with our creative folks early to build a unique event with specialized themes, branding, decor and more.
