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.

Corporate Castaways - Corporate Team Building Activity in Gravenhurst



Hi everyone, this is Nick with Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate team building update.

Today we worked with a group of senior marketing professionals at a golf and spa resort in beautiful Gravenhurst. It was a smaller crowd of only two teams today but the intimacy of the group only added to the rivalry as Blue Steels and the Beamers battled head to head across nine exciting challenges. Strategy was the name of the game for these participants who are all diligent about devising the master plan and sticking to it on each and every challenge. The Beamers took an early lead with two back-to-back cerebral challenges, but once things turned physical, Blue Steel made up some ground and evened the score. Never count your team out in Corporate Castaways because the challenges are diverse, time based, and you’ll never know which superstars on your team will rise up when you least expect it.

Wild Goose Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Mississauga



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

Today we are in downtown Mississauga, working with a local consulting company. This group of 30 did not stop laughing during the Wild Goose Chase. Everyone was in very high spirits from start to finish, this group started from their head office, was able to use the area in and around the Square One mall. It was the perfect footprint to conduct this activity because there were so many people around to help the participants complete the challenges. Some of the highlights for this group were re-enacting the intros to "Friends" by playing in a fountain, practicing their kung fu skills, and high-fiving simultaneously. This group demonstrated great teamwork, strategy, and communication. Everyone was energized from the event and were happy to get to know some of their colleagues better.

Wild Goose Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



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

Today we are in the Yorkville area, downtown Toronto, working with a national banking company. This group participated in a Wild Goose Chase event on our Canadian Outback app. They had loads of fun completing all the challenges and loved being able to interact with colleagues they don’t normally work with. By using our free app, the Toronto office was able to compete against their fellow colleagues in the Chicago office. This really made the two groups feel connected as they follow the leader board and watch the live stream, and it also made the activity that much more fun and competitive. Some of the group’s favourite challenges were creating their own band cd cover, making creatures out of paper clips, and finding their own doppelgangers. Overall, this group of 90 loved getting out of the office and having some fun with their colleagues. We ended the activity at a local bar for drinks and food and it was really a great day.
