I am writing to introduce you to The Great Office Escape (TheGOE) “a grownup field day” for South Floridians to play, explore and discover ways to live healthier, feel better; and win prizes while they do it. The Great Office Escape is a wellness day that encourages teams, individuals and kids alike ranging from co-workers, colleagues, friends and family members to put down their phones and enjoy a pressure-free day – all with one shared goal – to discover the fun of feeling good. TheGOE aims to provide participants with a way to unplug from the workplace and provides tools to foster healthy habits – both at work and home. Unlike traditional corporate events, The Great Office Escape focuses on positivity as opposed to competition. The objective is to take small, achievable steps, and celebrate ones’ accomplishments; whether big or small.

Taking place on March 7th at Haulover Beach, in Bay Harbor, The Great Office Escape is open to office teams, neighborhood teams and club teams as well as individuals and kids, the combinations are endless! To become a “citizen” (as a team ) of The Great Office Escape, (www.goe.com), all that is required is an enthusiastic group of 10 people over the age of 18 with at least two females prepared for fun with a healthy dose of side effects! There is even a KID’S ZONE; after all, living healthier is a family affair.

Anything but ordinary, contests at TheGOE include CEO Dunk Tank, Tricycle Races, Nerf Dodgeball, Hula Hoop, Wacky Obstacle Course, Social Media Challenges and Sandcastle Building. Teams receive official “Passports to Feelgoodsville” and can earn stamps by participating in games, contests and our Interactive Expo Booths. Teams that turn in a completed passport qualify to win prizes including restaurant gift certificates, massages and more.

The Great Office Escape concept was born to promote Health and Wellness in the workplace and to welcome, encourage and motivate those who are often times intimated by traditional fitness. Although it’s hard to admit, wellness competitions, like 5k’s and fitness challenges are intimidating to most people. Even so, The Great Office Escape offers alternative ways to wellness to those already involved in a healthy lifestyle. Knowing that cost of healthcare and insurance is on the rise and employees and employers are all feeling the impact; one of the most effective ways to help keep a lid on those costs is through wellness initiatives. Healthy employees get sick less often, lessening the cost burden on themselves and on their employers. Healthy individuals are proven to be more productive, have decreased absenteeism and improved morale.

The Great Office Escape 2015 is taking place on March 7th at Haulover Beach Miami, FL and early registration costs are just $50 per person. The rate goes to $57 per person on January 31, 2015. Sponsorship opportunities are also available. Past sponsors include Humana, Bacardi, KIND Healthy Snacks, Viva Coco and Tropical Credit Union.
