DAY one of Dorset’s newest festival of “fitness, feasting and fun” will be earmarked for businesses.

Contender Fest will offer perks and discounts for companies bringing a group of co-workers on Friday, September 10.

Team-building can be focused on a 40-element obstacle course at the event site in Parley Lane, Hurn, with challenges including a sledge pull, wooden incline walls, “Berlin walls”, tunnels, monkey bars, nets, tyre obstacles, a seesaw and log flip.

Festival founder Des Burke said: “The course we’re creating lends itself perfectly to team building, with tough but not defeating challenges that will require co-workers to demonstrate great communication, mutual support, problem-solving, and resilience to complete in the best times.

“And with plenty of delicious food and three speciality bars, music and entertainment, we’ve got the other side of team building – socialising and relaxing together – covered too.

“It’s about team-work and taking on challenges, great food, fun and relaxation – all rolled into one shared experience.”

Contender Fest takes place from September 10-12.
