On 9th August 2007, 90 Pinstormers got onto 2 buses and headed for Kamshet for our annual offsite. The 2005 Pinstorm annual offsite was also held in Kamshet but the difference was that we were 3 times the number of people this time around.
We decided to have a theme around which our organizers could plan activities. ‘Innovation and Creativity’ became the focus of our offsite. Our organizers ‘The Elementz’ decided that the most fun method would be the ‘Out-bound Management Development Methodology’ which is why we picked the venue to be YMCA Camp Lakeside, in Village Nilshi in Kamshet.
The location was beautiful with a picturesque lake and hills around. We had dorm like style of accommodation which was fun because it put 8 – 10 of us in one room.
The highlight of the whole trip though was the activities (all outdoors except when it rained too much) and of course the unofficial parties at night ;)
And obviously which offsite is complete without a few skits of the bosses and colleagues.
Needless to say after so much fun and learning, we all were saddened to get on the bus back to Mumbai, but the memories of the offsite will be with us forever because the experience was such that no one would forget the trip.
