Employee Trips

I was reading on the website that the ESD plans trips for employees? Are they worth going on? For anyone whose been on them, which ones are the best?

it seems like they'd be very fun if you can get the day(s) off and are willing to spend the money

I went on the Chicago one last year and I had a great time*maybe because I have been to Chicago before and I knew where to go* but they are fun...but with the Chicago one it takes like 5 hours to get there. This year I think that I am just going to drive there. A couple of friends and myself are going to Chicago this year but we are going to *Medieval Times*
