corporate holiday parties in Fletcher Hills.
A corporate holiday party with carnival entertainment replaces the sit-down dinner with something people can wander through: game booths, a snack row, music, a few entertainers and a Santa station for staff families. Corporate holiday parties in Fletcher Hills can take place on a company lot, at the Fletcher Hills Recreation Center & Pool or at Harry Griffen Regional Park, depending on the headcount and who approves the date. My Little Carnival brings the entertainment and the crew; the company brings the guests, the meal and the venue.
A company with staff in Fletcher Hills looks first at where the party can fit. The recreation center and Harry Griffen Regional Park are public grounds, a company can also use its own lot, and staff with children at Grossmont High School or in the Cajon Valley Union School District have school calendars that shape the date. The Grossmont Union High School District sets its own winter break.
My Little Carnival runs carnival-style year-end parties for companies in Fletcher Hills and across the La Mesa and East County area.
A holiday party at Fletcher Hills scale.
Take the afternoon version. A loop of striped booths sits on the lot or lawn, kids play prize games, the concession booth is open, a DJ runs music and a Santa and Mrs. Claus station waits near the entrance for staff families. Entertainers walk the loop: a face painter, a balloon artist, a caricature artist, a juggler, a stilt walker or a walk-around magician, whichever the company picks. The evening version keeps the music, the string lights and the snacks, trims the games and leaves out the inflatables.
The company decides how much of the list to use. The seven concessions from My Little Carnival are churros, pretzels, popcorn, cotton candy, nachos, snow cones and caramel apples. The meal and drinks of any kind are the company's to arrange, along with tables and chairs, any tent beyond our booths, heating, permits and other vendors.
