Amazing Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



It’s Dolena here from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

We worked with an event planning company who put on an amazing conference program for two national partner pharmaceutical companies. To spice up the program, Canadian Outback was called in to run a customized Amazing Chase for the group in downtown Toronto. This group was launching a new pharmaceutical drug and had a conference theme focused around the fictional character named “Jane”. In this Amazing Chase, the group had the opportunity to follow Jane’s journey around the city as they located the route markers, completed roadblocks and detours. All of these challenges included Jane’s narrative and the teams had a blast following the story. Some of the team’s favourite challenges were performing the New Zealand native dance, the Haka, where teams put on their Maori face and proudly stomped and danced their way to success. And the route marker “Fish Face” where the teams had to find a fish of any kind and take a team photo making fish faces. You could tell everyone stepped out of their comfort zones and had a blast getting to know their colleagues. Overall, this group loved getting outside, exploring the city and having a fun break from their workshops.

Amazing Chase and Wild Goose Chase Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



Hi everyone, this is Nick again, reporting on a fantastic full day of corporate team building.

Today, we are with a group of child care workers in downtown Toronto where we spent the day with fun, active, and competitive challenges for this very enthusiastic group. It was double duty this time as the team chose to start the morning off with an Amazing Chase, refuel over lunch, and then take it back outside to duke it out all over again with our Wild Goose Chase. Both events incorporated the Canadian Outback mobile app which guided users to a huge variety of exciting challenges. We saw participants run through fountains, put a dog on their head, borrow a police officer’s bicycle, eat worms out of tequila flavoured lollipops, and then perform the Haka and sing karaoke in the street, and that was just the beginning. Our app is loaded with activities to keep the group moving, competing, strategizing and laughing, right until the end, when the time runs out. Two teams reigned victorious, but everyone leaves a winner when working as a team, putting themselves out there and getting outside their comfort zones.

Amazing Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



Hi everyone, this is Nick again, reporting on another great afternoon of corporate team building.

Toronto is one of the most multi-cultural cities in the world, and the perfect playground to run the Amazing Chase. Today’s group of software developers made stops in Mexico, New Zealand, Ireland and Brazil, without ever packing a bag or boarding a plane. The Canadian Outback mobile app was the only passport necessary as it has the power to unlock the globe and guide users on their afternoon adventure. Participants had to face a variety of roadblocks and detours along the way, and these challenged them in new ways and encouraged them to collaborate, communicate and step up to the plate. Everyone’s competitive nature grew as the day went on, and they really got to show that with their intimidating Haka war cries. Watching teams perform let the rest of us know who meant business, and who was hungriest for victory.

Amazing Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



It’s Dolena from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

Today we are in downtown Toronto with a local law firm running the Amazing Chase. This group of 50 started off the event by coming up with very creative team names like “The Liquidators” and “Superheroes in Training”. They proved to be a very competitive group as they ran after each other, trying to get to their check point first. Some of the road blocks this group enjoyed were the sing along challenge where they had to sing a famous rush song and building a human pyramid. We ended the chase at a private bar in the distillery district where everyone was excited to have a drink because it was such a hot day. Everyone had a blast and really enjoyed getting to know everyone in their group.

Amazing Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Victoria



This is Jordan with another corporate event update from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events.

Our latest event, The Amazing Chase, was planned for a group of sales managers from the wine and spirits industry. It was an absolutely stunning bluebird day in BC’s capital, Victoria. Teams are tasked with completing a series of linear challenges throughout the downtown core. Just like on Amazing Race TV show, teams needed to successfully navigate roadblocks, detours, and any challenges presented along the way. Points were earned by completing challenges and submitting answers through Canadian Outback’s smartphone app in the form of funny videos, photos, text and trivia responses. There’s a race to the finish as the first and second place teams are separated by mere seconds. This race was truly a photo finish.
