Code Break - Corporate Team Building Activity in Whistler



Hi! This is Jules with another corporate event update from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events.

Today we were in the breath taking resort town of Whistler, BC, working with a national law firm here for a multi-day conference and retreat. Today’s event was broken up into 4 different activities for this large group, with this particular group of 30 participating in a custom 60-minute Code Break activity. Using the Canadian Outback smartphone app, this group completed up to 80 various riddles, puzzles and brain teasers. The group focus for the day of meetings was “Accountability”, so that thing was incorporated into the team structure, as each team had to designate someone to be accountable for the work of the entire team. This definitely proved to be successful for all. Several of the teams divided up challenges in order to work against the clock and get as many completed as possible. One team completed the least amount of challenges out of all the teams, but they had chosen all the high scoring challenges, therefore placing them in the close second to the winning team. There was lots of discussion afterwards to see who completed what riddles and puzzles, and of course, what the right answers were.

Apollo: Mission to the Moon - Coroprate Team Building Activity in Fraiser Valley, BC


This is Kristen with another corporate events update.

Our latest event took us to the Harrison Hot Springs Resort in the Fraser valley of beautiful British Columbia. We executed a small Mission to the Moon event for a group of vision care specialists. This Mission to the Moon event was part of their week long conference. It was really great to see teams working together, communicating and having a great afternoon together. A little bit of a diversion from the conference that they've been in all week. Participants really enjoyed the extra challenges for extra special supplies - decorating and building their rockets. They also enjoyed using their physics skills to protect the precious cargo in their rockets, however the highlight was definitely the launch. Lots of groups launched their rockets high into the sky and all groups protected their precious cargo throughout the blast.
