Fun Minute to Win It Corporate Team Building Event in Toronto



Marybeth here from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

We are in Scarborough Golf and Country club last week to run our Minute to Win It event for one of our many returning clients. Event took place after the group’s lunch where they are put into 4 teams, to compete head to head in 15 seemingly simple minute challenges. Minute to Win It challenges may appear easy but can be difficult and frustrating. Each team proved they could work effectively as a team and not as a group of individuals by collaboratively completing the challenges put in their way. This group shared many laughs, having a ton of fun, competing in corky and humorous tasks, while learning something new about themselves and their co-workers.

The Crime Investigators of Priddis, Alberta - Corporate Team Building Event Mysteries



Hi this is Jill with another corporate event update.

We are out here in Priddis, Alberta, and we have just completed a Crime Investigators for a local company that’s come out to the Azuridge estates to do a team building event as well as some meetings, and the Crime Investigators event was really a great event for both the space and the client as they were a bit more of a technical thinkers group and wanted something where they could really mentally and physically engage in the activity. So the Crime Investigators fit very well for what they are looking for and the property that we are working on was such a fantastic, diverse location that we were able to throw in some really fun and different crime scenes for these guys and walking around, seeing the teams interact with all of our crime units out on course was just really fun. They got really into it and had such a blast, being able to get into their crime scene mode and the major crime scene, because it was snowing, we had the first time we’ve ever encountered frozen blood before, which seems, that was really funny. They really enjoyed collecting those blood samples while we were at the crime scene. At the finish, where my favourite moments was having the teams do their media briefings and these guys were just so on point and creative and entertaining with their media briefings. They had the room howling, each team did something different and unique but was still funny and engaging, and it was really great to see the diversity in the group as they came up to do their final report. So really great to see, the client was incredibly happy with the event and we are already looking forward to doing some more events with them in the upcoming year, so, such a great success for all of us and our team had such a blast with these guys.

A Wild Goose Chase in Houston - Corporate Team Building Activity



Marybeth here from American Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

Last week we were in downtown Houston running our Wild Goose Chase for a petroleum company. Wild Goose Chase is a scavenger hunt that uses a mobile platform, which sends competing teams on a digital hunt. Teams compete by completing as many tasks as possible within a given time frame and photographing the evidence. The photographs are uploaded in real time so that everyone can see how other teams are doing. Tasks were created for this group to showcase downtown Houston, get the teams to work together and do wacky, crazy, exciting tasks. This group was enthusiastic and had a blast doing humorous and entertaining tasks. The group shared memorable moments and were still reliving them a few days later. This budget friendly event can be easily customized to fit your group’s needs and is a great way for your employees to let loose and have a great time.
