Video: The Company Picnic People Austin Event Timelapse
We were in Austin, TX for a Flextronics Company Event and we took timelapses of the entire event. Watch as tents are setup in record time and people make it through the buffet line quite quickly. Let us know what you think in the comments!
Minntech Corporation – “First Time Ever without Complaints”
Rain for a week? Not a worry. For Minntech‘s 385 person employee-only recognition event, The Company Picnic People pushed back the date and pulled off a hugely successful event on rain-soaked Minnesota ground.
According to Stephanie Frankhouser from Minntech, the day scheduled for the picnic was an absolute downpour, but she didn’t have to stress it: Jim and The Company Picnic People generously agreed to push the picnic back a week. Stephanie was impressed by how well The Company Picnic People worked with her company and says, “Jim’s just very reassuring and totally has everything under control — we don’t have to worry about a thing, he takes it all in his hands and does an awesome job at what he does.”
For entertainment activities, The Company Picnic People stayed true to their adult audience and incorporated Minntech’s company volleyball tournament, while also providing bingo, mini-golf, quarterback blitz, bean bag toss, the arcade room and other games for everyone’s recreational enjoyment. (our games)
Perhaps the biggest success of the event according the Stephanie was the food. “The chicken received rave reviews,” she says, “… and all of the food was very good — that’s something we typically get some sort of negative response to, but didn’t this time. It was the very first time without any complaints and that’s huge, satisfying that many people has never happened before. We’re having The Company Picnic People back this August and really looking forward to it.”
Stephanie Frankhouser testimonial:
I just wanted to thank you for a successful picnic. This is the first time ever that we didn’t have any complaints!! You and your staff did a wonderful job! The games were a huge hit and the food was great!! (the chicken has received raving reviews)
We would also like to book our picnic with you for next year. I will get in touch regarding the date.And if anyone requests a reference from you I’d be very happy to give one.
Thanks again,Stephanie Frankhouser

“I want to personally thank you for the great job you and your staff did at our company picnic. When I was driving to the picnic 30 minutes prior to the start, in the pouring rain, I had no idea what to expect. When I pulled up everything was set up and ready to go. The rain stopped just in time and the event went on without a hitch. The food was great and set up wonderfully. The amount of activities that you provided kept everyone entertained the entire time. There will be no need to have a picnic committee in the future because you thought of everything and all the details were covered. Thank you once again. Everyone had a great time!!”
