Monday 9th June saw the beginning of brasher's Spring Summer 2009 Product Launch and Conference. Starting at our offices in Sunderland we were given a preview of our new range of performance footwear and supporting marketing campaign.

Then it was off to the Lake District. Armed with video cameras we had the task of working in teams to produce a short film of each of our groups in their 'outdoor playground'. In this case it was Ullswater where we spent the night under canvas.

Our second day was jam packed. Organised by outdoor expert, John White we had a go at mountain biking, walking and canoeing. The biking was hard work but great fun and was followed by a five mile walk around the lake. We finished the day canoeing but with a helping hand from the wind a few of us ended up paddling in the wrong direction.

Don't forget we were filming our adventures as the day progressed and we captured some great footage. Holmeground Productions, the film company who supplied the equipment have the mammoth task of editing the films. The winning film will be decided on 3rd July and will appear on the brasher blog so make sure you check it out!
