"Active" day for the captains with the champion Francesco Chicchi
A sporting and entertaining closure dedicated to captains and companies already registered for Saturday activities: three Yare Active options that have met with great success. It starts with the bike tour accompanied by the world champion Francesco Chicchi, versiliese doc. Experienced skiers and beginners riding the bicycles made available by the organization will ride behind the professional cyclist for a more or less demanding tour depending on their ability, but certainly unique for its kind. The other proposal is a free shooting session at the polygon organized thanks to Pardini Armi di Camaiore: training, shooting with score and prize to the best participant commander. Last chance, very engaging, will be the soccer tournament organized at the Pardini Sporting Center in Camaiore: four teams (two international team leaders and two business teams) that will compete for the title of Yare Football Champion. Yare will close its eighth edition with a cocktail greeting for all the participants.

Five hotels for Yare
Yare has reached an agreement with five hotels in Versilia that will be the exclusive affiliated hotels where they will stay the commanders, guests and companies that will participate in the event. On the occasion of the international event, these hotels have prepared packages that include - for companies that participate in Yare - various free or discounted benefits (from parking, access to swimming pools and spa or à la carte menus and tasting). Promoting Versilia's comfort, relaxation, style and hospitality: in addition to the strictly business-oriented aspect, YARE can therefore also be an opportunity to discover the Tuscan territory.
