OAR-SOME! A DAY ON THE RIVER


The Business Travel Magazine and ITM hosted the third annual Dragon Boat Racing & Family Fun Day at the Oakley Court Hotel in Windsor


TWENTY-one teams from across the business travel sector battled it out on the River Thames at the annual Dragon Boat Racing & Family Fun Day in July. Hosted by The Business


Travel Magazine and the Institute of Travel & Meetings, the event took place at The Oakley Court Hotel, Windsor, and saw many close finishes. The eventual winners were Concur, who beat the teams from Omega World Travel and SilverDoor in a closely fought final. While team members paddled their hearts out on the river, colleagues, families and friends enjoyed numerous land-side


activities including bouncy castles, rodeo bull riding, a roundabout, face painting, an assault course, a demolition ball game and even some gladiator jousting. For those wanting to get out on the water, a boat offered 15 minute cruises up and down the Thames. A raffle and balloon race raised £942 to be split between The Business Travel Magazine’s chosen charity, the Rainbow Trust, and the Institute of Travel & Meetings charity called Meetings Industry, Meeting Needs. The event’s headline sponsor was Concur, while Avis sponsored the balloon race. The Oakley Court Hotel once again provided a stunning venue for the event and kept everyone well fed and watered with a fine barbecue and bar on the riverbank. The event was managed by TAG Events which is based at The Oakley Court.


The Avis-sponsored balloon race was won by


the son of Gary Povey from Intercontinental Hotels whose balloon travelled over 500 miles to Petershagen in Germany!
