Banff was the backdrop for this amazing race type of
activity that had teams travelling up and down town. Not only discovering some
of the local attractions but also interacting with the public and deciphering
some of the clues. It was a nice, crisp and clear day in Banff, perfect for an
activity like this. Teams have to use their negotiating skills to try to get
ahead of the game, but there can only be one winner, and that winning team was
the one that finished the quickest but also the most accurate.
Our latest event was an Amazing Chase, planned for a company
from a Technology sector. This was the 3rd year in the row they
competed in the Amazing Chase, so it was important to keep it fresh, and add
some new custom creative challenges. We had the pleasure of hosting our Amazing
Chase in the co-host city of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games – Whistler, British
Columbia. Just like on the Amazing Race TV show, teams needed to successfully
navigate road blocks, detours, and any challenges presented along the way.
Teams earn points by completing challenges and submitting their answers through
Canadian Outback’s smartphone app in the form of fun videos, photos, text and
trivia responses. It was a huge success as teams arrive at the finish for a
well deserved ice cold beverage. They shared stories, a few laughs, and of
course, the winning team received their coveted gold medals.
