Scenario of a corporate party on February 23
Congratulating your colleagues on the main men's holiday is not an easy task. The women who organize the event have to deal with many different issues: from decorating the premises and preparing congratulatory texts to organizing an entertainment program.
What to consider when preparing?
Preparation for the celebration of February 23 must begin with the selection of the premises in which the event will take place. The ideal option would be to book a cafe or restaurant hall - there will be enough space for a festive table, stage and dance floor. The area of the premises will make it possible to embody any idea of a corporate party, be it an exercise, a barracks, a military enlistment office or a military operation to attack competitors.
Unfortunately, an off-site holiday is not always possible, and then you have to organize a banquet directly in the office. This is not entirely convenient, since there is too little space in the workroom for active contests - office equipment makes it difficult to move furniture to the walls. Nevertheless, you need to create a festive environment. It is best to decorate the office in a military style for this - this will set the necessary atmosphere even if there is not enough space for competitions with dances, humorous scenes and active games.
Be sure to hang a congratulatory banner, print stylized posters, prepare funny army-themed pictures and cartoons. They can be supplemented with small chants, jokes and anecdotes. Such an unusual entourage invariably attracts attention and remains in the memory of all participants of the holiday.
An original idea will be to print a thematic poster, where instead of the faces of the main characters, images of colleagues.
Find or borrow a green camouflage net from someone for a while, for sure there are summer residents, fishermen or hunters among the employees of the enterprise. It can be used to decorate the wall of a photo zone or throw it on furniture. Folding tables and chairs, backpacks and all kinds of clothes in khaki shades will come in handy.
From paper in green-brown colors, cut into triangles and assemble a garland from them. You can stick photos of male colleagues in caps and garrison caps on the flags - you can make the necessary images in any photo editor.
Be sure to hang the balloons in themed colors, and use mini-toys for decoration (compasses, binoculars, cars, as well as weapons and toy soldiers).
For festive table decoration, purchase disposable tableware, napkins and cocktail tubes in the same color palette. If desired, you can order mastic toppers with corresponding images on toothpicks, as well as replace labels on drinks with thematic pictures.
Be sure to prepare holiday invitations for all your colleagues, not just men. A postcard in a military style looks very original - it can be a grenade, a combat vehicle or a gallant soldier. Invitations in the form of a comic agenda to the military registration and enlistment office or a dispatch from the commander-in-chief with the requirement to appear at the gathering place will help to introduce a note of positive.
Prepare in advance congratulatory songs-alterations from the women's team, memorize thematic anecdotes, remember jokes and toasts that are suitable for the occasion. They will help maintain a cheerful corporate spirit and will not let the holiday spill over into a banal feast. It is best to distribute interesting texts in advance to ladies who do not hesitate to speak in public.
And of course, consider the professional area of the employees.
Competitions for the coaching staff of a sports school should be very different from those prepared for teachers.
Best Celebration Ideas
A variety of themes are suitable for the storyline of the theme party. The “One Day in the Army” party will be a universal solution. But no less success will be enjoyed by the "Knights Tournament" and "Hussar Party", stylized as Musketeers. If the team is dominated by young ladies, then you can arrange a "beauty contest", and invite a few men to the jury.
The chosen topic should be the same throughout the day. By the evening, prepare all the necessary attributes of the costumes of soldiers of different types of troops and different times - these can be caps, peakless caps, hussar shako, Cossack caps or musketeer hats. Be sure to come up with short stories about the wearers of these accessories - they will be a good "design" of the competition program for February 23rd. When choosing entertainment, try to show imagination and creativity.
A Japanese-style holiday will be an original idea. In this case, sushi, sake and other Japanese dishes can be served on the table. Come up with stylized greetings and be sure to provide some "zest" in the entertainment program.
Fancy-dress congratulations, for example, the arrival of geisha or oriental beauties with colorful dances and songs will add special piquancy to the event.
The idea of the holiday "Fanta for real samurai" is played out in an interesting way. All the ladies present are given numbers, after which the men pull a piece of paper with a task for each of them. Fanta can be very different: tell a poem, sing a song, kiss 10 times or dance an oriental dance, and so on. Thus, you can get a whole concert program that will please both men and women.
Advice: when preparing a phantom, try to avoid difficult tasks, such as "stand on the bridge", "sit on the twine".
It is possible that the phantom will be pulled out by an adult colleague, for whom such tricks will be difficult.
In general, the theme of the holiday can be absolutely any. It is not so important here to achieve perfection in the preparation of festive decorations or costumes - much more important is the energetic message of congratulations and the sincere desire of colleagues to surprise and amuse their men.
Congratulations
The funny video "One day in the office without men" will become an unusual idea of congratulations. It jokingly plays up the situation when women are forced to reluctantly do all the main male work: change bottles on the cooler, solve all emerging problems with the computer, drag and drop heavy folders with documents. At the end, all together in chorus congratulate the men on February 23 and say words about the usefulness, irreplaceability of the stronger sex in the team. The video must be copied to any medium and given to each employee together with a memorable gift.
As for the presentation, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Much depends on team relationships and corporate norms. So, employees of small companies can give their colleagues a bouquet of dried fish or a cake made of beer. In more established corporations, business communication is accepted. Accordingly, the gifts here will be more official, most often these are certificates for a home appliance store.
On such a day, equal attention should be paid to absolutely all the men of the company. Everyone should receive their portion of warm congratulations on Defender of the Fatherland Day and feel the atmosphere that women tried to create for them. Such events invariably bring the work collective closer together, and everyone knows that it is a close-knit team that is the main guarantee of the success and prosperity of any enterprise.
And of course, traditional poetry is always relevant at any corporate party.
Entertainment
The entertainment program must include comic contests and competitions. Many interesting ideas can be found on the Internet. Let us dwell on those that will be appropriate in any team, regardless of the size and characteristics of interpersonal relations.
"Siamese twins"
The host of the event calls two men and invites them to find a mate, after which they turn into "Siamese twins." To do this, they will have to hug each other by the waist, and then complete several tasks for speed. Check which pair will snake through the bottles faster without straying or will be able to inflate and tie a balloon.
"Lovelace"
Matches are inserted into the apple so that it looks like a hedgehog. Each participant should compliment the woman standing next to him. Say the word - pulls out a match. You cannot repeat yourself. Whoever picks up the most matches will win.
"Father's porridge"
This is not an easy test, so the prize for it should be solid. All willing men are called. They are told a beautiful legend that the Don Cossacks had an interesting custom. When a girl appeared in the family, a special porridge was prepared for her father - any cereal was boiled, salted, pepper and seasoned with mustard. The baby's father had to eat it without frowning. It was believed that in this case the girl would have a happy fate. The winner will be the one who eats such porridge faster than others without frowning.
"Dance on the newspaper"
At a festive event, you cannot do without a dance program. Therefore, dancing on the newspaper will be good entertainment. For this, couples are called in, each is given a newspaper. The task of the participants is to dance together on a newspaper page in such a way as not to go beyond it. At the end of each round, the newspaper is folded in half. Several rounds are carried out in this way. The couple who can dance on the newspaper in the smallest square wins.
"Accurate shooter"
For this competition, you will need several targets, as well as darts with Velcro, the children's game "Darts" will do. Men must hit the target as accurately as possible.
"Shoot it"
Participants are given 5-7 nails each, as well as wooden planks and a hammer. The task is to hammer as many nails into the block as possible in a minute. The winner will be declared the most economical man.
"Stirlitz"
Every representative of the stronger sex wants to feel like a super agent for a while. One of the ladies must be invited to hold this competition. Participants in the competition need to take a good look at her outfit and try to remember even the smallest details. After that, the object of observation leaves the festive hall and changes some elements. For example, tying a scarf, taking off / putting on rings or unbuttoning a button. The more minor the changes, the more interesting. The woman is returned to the bath room, and the winner will be the one who notices the most "alterations".
"Fishermen"
All men love fishing, so one of the contests must be dedicated to her. To do this, you need a rod with line and weights, as well as empty bottles and a stopwatch. Participants must hit with a sinker exactly in the neck of the bottle, perform a sweep and quickly pull out their prey, that is, pull the fishing rod so that the bottle falls on its side. The best fisherman is the one who catches fish more than others in one minute.
"The most attentive"
So that women do not get bored, a competition can also be held for them. First, you need to prepare a small slideshow using fragments of photographs of the men participating in the party... The task of the ladies is to determine who they belong to.
You can make three video sequences. Let's say the first "Eyes opposite". Participants must determine which of their male colleagues the eyes belong to in the photo. At first, only the eyes are shown, and after the answer is heard, the whole face.
The second video sequence "Best Smile" - in this case, women have to recognize men only by their lips.
And finally, the third video sequence "Reliable rear" - here you are invited to guess men from behind.
Sample scripts
We offer a small interesting scenario for February 23, which harmoniously combines a congratulatory block, an entertainment program, plays with a snack and puts a beautiful end to the banquet finale.
In the center of the hall, two young girls come out "with a needle", real glamorous blondes. Participants observe a funny scene as if from the middle of a conversation:
The first (P): ... and still there is babovism reigning, and for some reason you have to stand on the bedside table!
Second (B): What nonsense, I will never believe!
P: Honestly, honestly! Imagine, you can't even use makeup there, you have to go AWOL for mascara. Even the boots have to be washed myself and the footcloths are washed with our own hands.
Q: Is it really all-all hands? What will become of my manicure?
P: What a manicure, you have to forget about it, all day you have to hold either a shovel or a gun in your hands. And makeup! Imagine - as soon as you put on makeup, the commander says: "Quickly put on a gas mask."
Q: Oh no, I don't want to join the army now, a gas mask does not suit me at all ... on the other hand, there are so many strong men there ...
P: Yes, there are many of them, but everyone has to salute!
At this moment, two more participants appear - stout women with curvaceous forms. One is dressed in a cook's outfit, the other in a nurse's outfit.
Nurse: Well, what are you cackling! To whom, I wonder, are you such surrendered - only men will you scare everyone there!
Cook: Look at them, they don't want to give honor - there would be something else to give. Well, let's go from here!
After that, the fifa run away, and the nurse and the cook in chorus sing ditties or remade songs on the topic of military service. Any text can be used; only its essence matters for the script.
The presenter rises onto the stage. She says: “Well, how can you not rush to the military registration and enlistment office after such a bright performance? Although men have no choice ... Now listen carefully to my command.The entire composition of recruits for the roll call and medical examination is in formation! Well, why are we sitting? Nobody will receive any deferrals from military service today. "
The men line up, and the nurse moves from one to the other and comments.
- Antonov, wow, what hands! With such shovels are not necessary - this is a valuable frame for the army.
- Ivanov! Why is such a pale and skinny, not parasites, an hour, wound up? Nurse, give him 50 grams for prophylaxis.
It is important that the cool characteristics are humorous, but at the same time inoffensive. It is best if they are compiled by a woman who is well acquainted with the "cadets".
Presenter: So, the physical examination is over - now build up according to your height. How slow you are, like turtles on drifts. All the time you need to urge you on. Well, they quickly lined up according to the size of their manhood. Stop laughing! Now you will be given a military uniform, so start comparing your bellies, and not at all what you thought.
The leader, looking around the soldier, says: “Well, a worthy platoon has turned out. However, appearance is not the main thing - in a soldier, his physical form is important. Defending the Motherland is not about shaving your mustache with a vest, there is always risk and danger. "
After that, you can hold several army competitions. How many of them there will be and what games to choose - directly depends on the average age of employees, their physical condition and, of course, the time allotted for the holiday. Here you can conduct throwing crumpled paper into a basket, arm wrestling, competitions for reaction speed and endurance. If the event is held outdoors, arrange an obstacle course for your young colleagues.
An integral part of any holiday is a feast - as they say: "Service by service, and lunch on schedule." The presenter should invite everyone to the table. Women should maintain the interest of their male colleagues at all times, raise comic toasts, tell interesting stories and fairy tales, read poetry and act out small skits. They will harmoniously fit into table games and military-style contests.
You can end the holiday with an oath. The presenter says: “So, this is not the time to relax! A squad for taking the military oath is forming! In order to avoid burdensomeness, so be it, I will read the text to you, and you shout in chorus "I swear" after each paragraph. Go!
I swear:
- comply with the company's charter;
- work for one idea, even if the salary was not given;
- provide their colleagues with comprehensive assistance;
- it is good to pretend that I am exactly following all the orders of my superiors;
- come up with the most grandiose excuses for absenteeism and lateness;
- to respond to the actions of competitors with valiant labor! ".
