Arguably one of Orange County’s best kept secrets is the $6.8 million Newport Sea Base, where children learn how to navigate mini marine vessels and executives can steer their company to the Newport Beach Harbor for a day of rejuvenation away from the office. The Sea Base boasts a history dating back to 1937 and recently completed the multi-million dollar construction project. The new architecture is beautiful, modern and sits along 400 feet of water’s edge in the Newport Beach Harbor. Not an exclusive yacht club, this is a facility for everyone. The folks at the Sea Base, also called the Sea Scouts base (the Sea Scouts are a division of Boy Scouts of America), have extended an invitation to small businesses to utilize the facility for team-building functions, parties and other social and professional events.
The Newport Sea Base was originally host to the youth of and Sea Scouts of Orange County, with the intention of developing character and instilling a love for maritime in the hearts of youth, according to the Orange County Council, Boy Scouts of America. Part of the plan in building the new sea base was to reach out to the small business community of Orange County. The Newport Sea Base offers a uniquely coveted venue where orange county small businesses have the opportunity to revitalize company morale and engage with their employees in fun team-building sessions.
Small businesses are known for being efficient and streamlined. The few employees they do have are highly valued and keep their organization running. Small businesses do not have layoffs, usually; their doors are either open or closed. They typically leverage the skill sets of their few but strong employees, and small business owners understand the value in rewarding their people. Savvy entrepreneurs periodically invest in the vibrancy of their people. What a difference a half a day can make: When small business owners reward their employees by breaking free from the office and heading to the beach, everyone will see each other a little differently, noticing employees and owners both shine brighter in the sun.
