WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Mary Pallattella, Capital C
Corporate Day, Toronto, ON, The Boulevard Club

"Capital C was in a time of transition when it approached GWN about creating a custom corporate day experience for its team. We were hiring a lot of new employees, and I thought it would be a great event for everyone to get acquainted. One hundred and twenty employees arrived at the Boulevard Club to work together, paddle in sync, and participate in a light-spirited competitive race. It was great to view the cityscape from our location. We would definitely do this again.”

Ontario Hospital Association
Corporate Day, Toronto, ON, The Boulevard Club

“We had a fantastic experience dragon boating with GWN. The instructors were fun, motivating, and really got our team working together in coordination – well enough to win the race. It was such a great experience, I enjoyed it to a point I’d like to form a team and do dragon boating on a weekly basis!”
 
“Learning how to dragon boat for the first time was intimidating, but GWN made it easy and fun! The instructors were great teachers and made the event a ton of fun! I would definitely dragon boat with GWN again!”
