With paddles of course! In June this year the Bistech team took timeout to venture into nature for a day of kayaking and team building. The team event involved a challenging 11km paddle across Lake Cootharaba and up the Noosa River to the famous 'Harry's Hut'. Upon reaching the hut, the group stopped for some team building activities and some lunch before hoping back into the tandem kayaks to paddle back to base camp. The team set a cracking pace on the paddle home as they stroked a total of 22kms to complete the round journey in a record time!
Needless to say there was some pretty sore arms and stiff necks on the bus ride home...job well done!
