I have listened to a lot of great responses to this question, so, for
what it's worth, I will add my .002 cents worth.

1. As was proposed by another, a formal workshop should be offered to
the magazine/company who is responsible for the employees.  I firmly
believe that there should be a charge for this as any company would be
charged for a workshop/seminar.  This is how it's value and importance
is determined in the corporate enviroment and will impact follow up. 
Free stuff is generally percieved as valueless.  
Even if they choose not to schedule the workshop, they will consider the
situation seriously if the proposal was written with all the anecdotal
information about the cavalier attitude of it's employees.

2. Encourage the company to schedule an end/beginning of season  formal
paddle (at the boathouse's determination) for their employees when they
can safely deal with water temperatures.
