Cake Creators - Corporate Team Building Activity in Ottawa



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

We’re in Ottawa where a local company is participating in our Cake Creators event. There were 14 people in this group and most of them were new hires, so the goal was to welcome new members to their team and provide an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other in a non professional environment. These goals were definitely achieved. Everyone worked really well together and made some very creative cakes. Their use of different colors and candies really made the cakes one of a kind and you could see teams really working together to achieve the best results. The most exciting part about this event was definitely at the end with the presentations. Everyone got out of their comfort zones, there was singing and acting, there were decorative signs. Everyone really enjoyed themselves.

The Apprentice - Corporate Team Building Activity in Winnipeg



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

We were in Winnipeg on March 10th where we worked with a local company who participated in the Apprentice. This is a special group of people because they were all managers coming together from different parts of northern Canada. They were from the Northwest Territories as well as Nunavut. This group was very excited about this event because they were donating these children’s bikes to deserving children in their communities that are in very remote locations and normally don’t have access to these types of materials. So it was really fun and really motivated the groups to do a good job. The group had a lot of fun, they worked with their peers and they demonstrated really strong teamwork and they had great time management. They built these bikes so quick, decorated them and it gave them a lot of time to come up with creative presentations. They were dancing and there was story telling and singing and acting, it was definitely the highlight. The group had a lot of laughs and a really fun time with the presentations in the end. People got out of their comfort zones and really made it fun and exciting.

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.

The Apprentice - Coprorate Team Building Activity in Montreal



Hey everyone, it’s Michelle with Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

We have just finished a large, 150 person Apprentice event at the downtown Montreal Forum, which used to be the venue for the old Montreal Canadians. Our event was situated right on the old center ice so it was a very cool venue. The group was from all over Ontario and Quebec, they were a mixture of ages and ranges, abilities, and genders and they’re from different departments within a large communications company. They had a fantastic time, they got to build children’s bicycles for teenagers, that was a specific request that they had have. They donated those bikes to the Boys and Girls Club of Lasalle, and there were about 3 representatives from the Boys and Girls club on site, they are to accept the bikes in person, which was a great way to wrap up the activity and they got to really see all their hard work was going. All in all, it was a fantastic event, they had a great time and nothing but smiles and positive reviews at the end.

Minute to Win It - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



Hi there everyone, this is Emma from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events.

I’m here with another update for everyone on a great event we just ran in Toronto. This event was our Minute to Win It and we ran this event in a game show style, so sometimes we had group all-in challenges that was just great chaos and fun. Everybody was participating. Sometimes teams got to pick and nominate team members to come up and try out the challenges, and other times we ran a relay style, back and forth with everyone getting a chance in these challenges. As you can see from the photos, there was so much energy, action and really, co-workers just having a good time together. I think one of their favorite challenges was my favorite called “Johnny Apple Stack” – it’s where you have to stack five apples high. This challenge really stumps teams and for some reason they just couldn’t get enough of it, even after the challenge was over, a lot of people went back later and kept practicing. That just shows a lot of determination from this company.

If you think that your company would benefit from an amazing team building event like this one, please don’t hesitate to contact our sales team. We’re here and ready to help you find your perfect event.
