I hate to sound Pessimistic, but this never worked for me at Intel
I'd just work through the whole day anyway.
(Too much work to do.)
You would have 1 person that didn't have as much work to do win this.
I suggest a OFFSITE event, and for the people that are left at work
you need to offsite them one day also, and let the others cover for them.
